He would be willing to reduce <br />the number of changes per minute to <br />below the present two a minute. <br />Discussion followed. <br />Commissioner Pons then offered a <br />resolution to approve this applica- <br />tion with all the staff recommen- <br />dations. This resolution died for <br />lack of a second. <br />-8- <br />
