Board Member Fernandez stated, "Just for the record, to clean my skirts and everybody
else's skirts - coming in the door out there, Commissioner Edward Martinez stopped me
and indicated he wanted to talk to me there or wanted to make a presentation at the public
meeting because he also has concerns about those same sections I have commented on
twice and I told him I would put it on the record so he didn't have to hang around. It will
hit his level at some point, - I assume we're going to address it and I even think Staff
agrees, you don't even know why it is in there and it shouldn't be, it's messed up and
needs to be worked on."
