XIV. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS - C
MAY 10, 2012
MR. KENNETH DORAN, Elkhorn Trail, Palm Desert, warned Chair Spiegel to watch his
tone with him in the future, because he didn't intend to take it anymore. He said he would
be targeting him, because he'd seen him do things illegally. He again cautioned him not
to chastise him from the dais.
Chair Spiegel responded it was policy that once a person had been allowed to speak to
a matter on the agenda, it represented their turn; they were not allowed to return to the
microphone to speak again on the matter.
MR. DORAN refuted the statement.
XV. ADJOURNMENT
On a motion by Finerty, second by Kroonen, and 5-0 vote of the Successor Agency Board
of Directors, Chair Spiegel adjourned the meeting at 5:45 p.m.
