Robert,
In light of the recent resignation by Charles Richards for medical reasons, and knowing this is
going to make the Buildings and Standards Commission a member short, I would like to
recommend that the city council bring Joseph Scott back to the commission. Joseph
demonstrated a knowledge of the issues we are dealing with, and an honest belief in what our
commission is trying to do for the City of Paris.
Johnny Norris
BSC Chairman
