To members of the Lee County Board of Commissioners, LACPC Chairman, Bo Turbeville, members of the LACPC.

It has been brought to my attention that my name was mentioned for a position with the Consultant Selection Committee. With all due respect and gratitude, if this is indeed true, I must defer to the decision of the LACPC Board that Mr. Ed Weiner is our only voting representatives to that committee. Additionally it was a consensus that Mr. Mike Welch sould be an additional representative if the County Staff allowed. This is my first reason.

Secondly, I do not profess to be experienced with regard to picking a Planning Consultant. While my Subcommittee is very much interested in having the opportunity to add our findings to the Comprehensive Plan, I will await the decision of County Staff and our representatives and urge the Selection Committee to proceed with all haste and dilligence.

Respectfully submitted,

John C. Miller, Beautification and Conservation Subcommittee, Lehigh Pride Team
