<br />{-. " <br />/ <br />I-..: <br /> <br />TUESDAY <br /> <br />NOVEMBER 9, 1976 <br /> <br />..-- <br /> <br />I shall not quarrel with the decision of this fine citizen - <br />this Good Samaritan - this humanitarian. Only because he <br />identified with me has he become the butt of criticism from <br />some few people. Nor, can I ask him to "hold on" because of <br />further abuse owing to our having run as teammates. I am <br />sure it is comforting to both of us to know that 2,055 <br />voters did not look askance at this association. And, let <br />me state with emphasis what Pat knows and 2,055 people know - <br />I don't own anybody and I don't wish to. The thought is <br />absolutely abhorrent to me. I have never used other than <br />persuasion to try to achieve any notion whatever the situation; <br />family, church, business, civic or political. I never shall. <br /> <br />,'.-. <br /> <br />To illustrate the kind of person Mr. Sutton is, he has even <br />suggested that he feels Mr. Cole is a good man and has the <br />qualifications to make an able councilman.

If Mr. Cole is selected, <br />the tax payers will be spared the cost of a special election. <br /> <br />Following this presentation, and upon motion (duly seconded and unanimously <br /> <br />carried), nominations were opened for the filling of said vacancy. And, <br /> <br />following the nomination by Councilman Greene of Mr. W. C. Cole, Jr., the <br /> <br />nominations were unanimously closed and, accordingly, Mr. Cole was unanimously <br /> <br />appointed to membership on the Council for Mr. Fitz-Hugh's unexpired term ending <br /> <br />August 31, 1978. Meanwhile, Council indicated that it would re-organize at its <br /> <br />next regular meeting, suggesting that Mr. Cole might be formally sworn in at that <br /> <br />meeting. <br /> <br />",- <br /> <br />Pursuant to duly-advertised public notice, Council conducted a public hearing on <br /> <br />(1) a proposed Flood Plain Ordinance and (2) proposed amendments to portions of <br /> <br />Sections IV and V of the City's Subdivision Ordinance relating to said proposed <br /> <br />Flood Plain Ordinance, as recommended by the Planning Commission for the purpose <br /> <br />of protecting life and property as well as for the protecting of health.
