20 The previous council's decision does not prevent this same glep from
21 going to the council again (decisions are not forever.)
22 Some folks seem to think that taking glep55 back to the council is not
23 allowed somehow (or is perhaps futile, but that is a different issue
24 ;p) Having the full notes would be helpful in determining why it was
25 turned down back then; I'm sure a copy of the notes exist.
