Mr. Allen indicated that he had a conflict because Mr. Jack was an employee where he worked, so he had to recuse himself from this item. This also created a quorum issue without Mr. Allen. Therefore, Staff pulled Item 8 b., and Mr. Jack's item would be continued to the June 11th meeting. Since his application had no deficiencies, Mr. Jack would be offered the Temporary Certificate of Competency, which enables him to obtain permits until then. Mr. Allen was provided the conflict form for completion.
