Brewster vehemently de- nied ever violating Indiana's open door law, which requires all meetings of public officials to be posted and list the rea- son for the meeting 48 hours prior to the meeting. Brewster claimed there had to be intent on his part to meet with someone and discuss public business in private. Lamb said it wasn't intent but rather public perception that was the problem. Brewster then said, "Since I was the guilty party on open door" I want to explain it. He said when Terry Strobel and Greg Simmons were elect- ed to the town council he met with them at Town Hall and showed them where various files and records were kept so they would know where to find the information they needed to help them make decisions." Strobel was at the meeting and agreed that took place. "I did the same thing with Dee Fiscus. I was showing her where the information is that she needed to know where it was. That is what we were do- ing. Not violating the open door law," said Brewster. He added, "Nobody came and asked me what we were doing. I resent the heck out of that. That is the last thing I'm saying about it," said Brew- ster. But he added, "If the next board is elected and they want me to come up here and do the same thing, I will." Lamb said the idea of the open door law is that when discussion goes on in private, the public is shut out of that discussion. Others argued having five members could better repre- sent Winslow. "You would have five peo- ple instead of three opin- ions," said Barry Parker. He added, "We have had inter- est from more than one per- son. Why not put it to a refer- endum vote? " Brewster said he would need some proof of the idea's merit before he would be will- ing to have a referendum on it. He said it would add ex- pense to the town just in the salaries, as each council mem- ber is paid $299 a month. The discussion then moved to needing repairs on the po- lice car. Town Marshal Steve Nelson said it was estimated repairs would cost $2,500. Brewster said, "We need to do a check to see what is wrong with the car we have." "I know what is wrong with it," said Public Works Superin- tendent Torez Baham. "Are you a certified me- chanic? " asked Brewster. Baham said he was not a certified mechanic, but he works on all his stuff and he knew enough to know what was wrong with it. Nelson said the stabilizer bar was out, it needed new bushings, aligned and new tires. Lamb asked if the board wanted to consider getting a new police car. Brewster said he wanted to check their finances before committing to a new car. Nelson said he had talked to Mike McGregor, an Oakland City officer who used to work for Winslow, and was told he thought they could get a car for about $13,000. Lamb said depending on how much they would have to spend to keep the current ve- hicle with 140,000 miles on it running, they might want to get a new vehicle they don't have to worry about for four or five years. "I will consider it, but I want to know what it costs. In other police news, the town council said James Har- rington is no longer employed by the Town of Winslow. Fol- lowing the meeting Lamb said Harrington had resigned. A dilapidated mobile home near DeTar street that is sit- ting mostly on town proper- ty was brought up. Lamb said she gave the owners an exten- sion until May 31 to get the clean-up completed. She was questioned if she had the authority to make the decision on her own. Lamb said it was an executive mat- ter and she could make that decision. She said they had been or- dered to clean it up since last Fall. She added the owners had hired someone to haul it away, but after the contractor saw the condition of the trail- er he refused, fearing it would break up while being moved. "This has been going on since last year. What is one more week," said Lamb. The next Winslow meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. Mon- day, June 13 at the Winslow Community Center.
