PUBLIC INPUT / COMMENTS :
COMMENT : Eric Wright, 40 th Street (read in her absence)
Came to speak about some shrubbery that was removed from his property years ago and has not been
replaced. He no longer lives in Brentwood but wishes to be reimbursed for the shrubs. He is not asking
the Town for money but to get the shrubs replaced. He spent about $200 for 12 trees and does not wish
for them to be planted but rather given to him.
RESPONSE : Mayor and Council will work to come up with a solution
COMMENT : AC Warden, 40 th Street
Concerned about an Ordinance that would force Micro businesses to pay fees. If there is any ordinance
that is being considered they would request that the Town provide 60-day notice.
