VILLAGE MANAGER'S REPORT
As a matter of record, Village Manager Dennis Kelly reported that
on Tuesday, November 8, 1994 at 2,00 p.m., he and Mayor Vastola
attended a meeting called by County Commissioner Karen Marcus to
discuss Ellison Wilson Road. Mr. Kelly stated that unbeknownst to
him and Mayor Vastola, Attorneys Alan Ciklin, Randall DeHayes and
Louis Timchak, and Ira Brichta and Mort Levin had also been
invited. Upon seeing the other attendees, both Mr. Kelly and Mayor
Vastola felt that it would be inappropriate for a member of the
North Palm Beach Village Council to attend any meeting with the
Target appellants and their attorneys. Therefore, Mayor Vastola
left the meeting before it started and did not participate in any
way.
