Mr. Grossman addressed the Board. He stated Ms. Dillon kept the verbatim record. If there was a difference between record and the notes, the record must take precedence. It was the charge of the Secretary to use judgment to determine what the most appropriate testimony be sited. Mr. Grossman opined it was important to identify testifying witnesses by name; and it was a good idea to indicate the name of the individual Board member who has asked a question to get a feel for what was going on during testimony; if there was a dispute regarding the testimony reflected in the minutes then the Board should be able to review the verbatim transcripts. Mr. Grossman said that sometimes, five members of the Board spoke at ance; which put the Board Secretary in an impossible situation to record all testimony. Chairman Bagoff said the Planning Board was transient; the mind of the current Board has determined individual members be identified and incorporated in future meeting minutes; however, members could not send the Secretary thirty corrections.
