4. Additional fees for review of files. Bob said that Sandwich charges an additional fee for checking files for completeness. Bob hasn't had time to do this, and occasionally we have been missing things. He thinks we should consider a fee to hire someone not to check environmental effects and the performance standards, but just to check files for completeness. That's what John Johansen used to do. 5 A. Lori announced that she will be resigning effective June 25, 2004 in order to pursue a new career. B. Bob announced that he will be resigning in October 05. He thinks there are a number of procedural things which could be handled better and we ought to look to the Commissioners to be more involved. Also, the replacement for Lori should be someone who could replace Bob. Joyce Mason has recommended that the Assistant Conservation Agent be a full-time position. He said that the Steering Committee needs to talk about the things that aren't being done well now, i.e., we have hundreds of COC's that have not been done. 6.
