COlVIlVIITTEE REPORTS: Mrs. Lord said they now have the report for homes on Butternut. She said they discussed this at the last meeting and Mr. Dailey pulled up the addresses for the meinbers. She said if the board members are gathering information, this is a work sheet to help them in that task. She asked if it contains the things needed to do the job. Mr. Barker said most of the information can be gathered from what Mr. Dailey submitted. Mrs. Lord indicated they can begin with that information and then start some dialogue with a family in the historic district, either by phone or at the door. She said there are e-mail addresses listed there too, which is now an easy way to communicate with people. Mrs. Davis brought up the line in the report that mentions hearsay. Mrs. Lord said Mr. Brown's situation is a prime example, as his application is based on a lot of hearsay. The job then is to prove it, but the application gives you more to work with. She indicated everyone should have a copy of the narratives from the original self-guided tour. She mentioned the information from MetroScan, which lists the permanent parcel numbers.

Mrs. Lord indicated they discussed dividing the list so all the members would have a set number of people to contact. Mr. Barker suggested
