would follow precedent established by Mr. Jackson by abstaining
since he was not present at the previous meeting. No action
was taken on the minutes.
APPRDVAL OF BfLLING FOR LEGAL SERVICES
Chairman Covington asked the Executive Director-Secretary if
he had any questions concerning the bill or if he could verify
the components of the billing. Myers noted that he could
verify all but the school agreement. He explained that he had
received a call from Mr. Jacobs concerning the school agreement
saying that it was not ready and that he would be unable to
attend the meeting this evening. Chairman Covington then asked
that Mr. Jacobs be requested to attend the next meeting and that
hopefully the agreement with the school district would be
presented to the Agency. Since'the Agency did not have a copy
of the a greement with the school district and this was one of
the components of the billing, it was a order of the Chair to
hold approval of the 6i11ing for legal services from Mr. Jacobs
until the next meeting.
