h. The Township, this Board and all Members thereof shall not be responsible for any damage to or malfunction of any recording device. i. No recording device shall block any aisle or other method of ingress/egress. j. No recording device shall be left unattended at any time. Mr. Steinhart stated that the idea was to allow recording devices without interfering with Board activities or the public being able to see or hear testimony of the case. Chairman Neuer asked if any Committee member did not want one of the conditions that Mr. Steinhart read. Ms. Zaolino stated that she is not in favor of any requirement for advance approvals. Mr. Sussman stated that he felt that the Board is in its purview to limit the number of devices which would eliminate the potential to disrupt the hearing. Advance notice will help to control this aspect. Mr. Steinhart read a memo from Chairman Neuer that listed his suggestions. The suggestions were that each requestor must agree to be bound by the provisions of Rule 5.11 in conducting their activities during the Zoning Board meetings, that the location be moved back to the fifth row and not the third row and that with regard to item h, that it should read The Township and all Members of the Zoning Board shall not be responsible for any damage to or malfunction of any recording device. Ms. Zaolino stated that she had a problem with the location being moved back to the fifth row; Mr. Steinhart and Mr. Sussman stated that they did not have a problem with that. Mr. Steinhart stated that be is in agreement with the Chairman’s suggestions and recommends that they are incorporated into the Committee’s conclusion. Chairman Neuer asked if there were any other comments from the Committee. Mr. Sussman stated that he is fine with the Chairman’s suggestions. Ms. Zaolino stated that she does not disagree with any of the Chairman’s suggestions except for the location being moved back to the fifth row. Mr. Steinhart stated that Chairman Neuer offered another suggestion requiring the videographer or photographer to deliver electronic versions of the recordings and photos to the Board Secretary within one week so that they may be made available to the general public upon request. Mr. Steinhart stated that, although he understands the greater purpose of everyone having access to it, he does not agree that it should be a condition to turn

ble to the general public upon request. Mr. Steinhart stated that, although he understands the greater purpose of everyone having access to it, he does not agree that it should be a condition to turn it over. Chairman Neuer stated that it would be a copy and not the original; Mr. Steinhart said that he understands that. Mr. Sussman stated that if they are required to turn it over, how would the public access it; would they have to go to the Board secretary’s office to view it? Ms. Zaolino stated that this is unenforceable and that it is their personal property. Chairman Neuer stated that they would be asked to turn over a copy of what they recorded at the meeting; not the original copy. He explained that this is not intended to impose a hardship upon them; it is just so the end product can be seen by the general public. Chairman Neuer also stated
