"I want it known that it is my own personal opinion that as for the organization and the individuals of this City, most are very dedicated people, some are not, but I think that if the City would handle things properly, proper methods of changing that would occur. I believe that individuals that have an appeal or do feel they have been wronged, being a working per- son cannot afford to go to the courts and if this Board were to be done away with, the only way they could go is the Civil Court and who could afford that. The other thing it would do is drive the organizations to become members and part of National or- ganizations. I have lived in this City for 33 years and I think the City could on its own with a few changes, take care of its own and straighten things out for itself in a reasonable manner. Many times when you go to National organizations, they are not familiar with what goes on locally and they don't really care.'' Since there were no unscheduled visitors, the meeting was adjour- ned. The next regular meeting was set for September 19, 1987 at 6:30 p.m., in the Council Chambers .
