Father Ostertag was asked to open the meeting with a prayer. The lack of a quorum was noted so no legal action could be taken on any issues. Ralph Braden informed us that Thomas Wilson had turned in his resigna- tion as chairman and member of the board. He then asked for those present to act as a nominating committee for officers for 1970. The following officers were nominated: Chairman Dr. Parker Preble Vice chairman Father Edward Ostertag Secretary Mrs. W. J. Atherly These and any others nominated will be voted on at the next meeting February 9, 1970. Each member of the Commission is urged to be present for this very important meeting. Father Ostertag introduced Mr. Penfield Tate, the new Human Rela- tions Executive for CSU and he was welcomed to our meeting. Mr. Sullivan introduced Mr. Arthur Roy to the group. He is new in the City Attorney's office and will be meeting with us some in the future. The suggestion was made that the present bylaws be reviewed and revised; and that decisions would be made in accordance with them. The question of a Housing Code for Fort Collins was brought up and Mr. Roy and Mr. Sullivan reported that the City Council was working on one at this time. The chairman asked the Secretary to write a letter to the City Council asking for a copy of the proposed Housing Code for study and submission of thoughts on same, prior to its publication and adoption. The Secretary was asked to phone all members February 8 or February 9, to remind them of the meeting Monday evening, February 9, 1970, at 7:30 p.m. in the City Council Chambers.
