Atascadero City Counciinutes, May 29, 1984 COUNCIL COMMENTS Councilman Nelson asked that the City Clerk/Tape incident be discussed during this time. He asked why the Council was not informed as to the incident before the District Attorney was called in. Mr. Warden explained the incident fully and requested that the Council allow for an investigation by an impartial party, such as Judge Harris, Retired with full sworn testimony by all involved parties.

MOTION: Councilman Nelson moved, Councilman Molina seconded that a report be done by the District Attorney' s Office and pre- rented to the Council members. Motion passed unanimously. A.
