be added to these minutes - 'notice be given the violators to present their evidence
before the meeting to the Board Secretary so copies can be made ready to give to
Board members so they can review it independently instead of waiting for this
evidence to be passed along to each member in the middle of the meeting'. It was
agreed that photos can be difficult to copy, but any other written evidence that can be
copied should be prepared in this way.
