4 <br /> <br />TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1992 <br />modification. <br /> <br />Council acknowledged a financial report for the month ending 10/31/92 <br />by the Director of Finance. <br /> <br />Council recognized W. H. Yeaman for the purpose of completing his <br />remarks which were interrupted under Business From the Floor. As Mr. <br />Yeaman began reading from his letter to Kevin Reed dated October 9, <br />1992, Mayor McClain notedthat it appeared that Mr. Yeaman's comments <br />involved Southwestern Virginia Gas Company, of which Mayor McClain is <br />President, and therefore, the Mayor turned chairmanship of the meeting <br />over to Vice-Mayor Adams and exited the Council Chamber for the <br />duration of Mr. Yeaman's comments.
