<p class="MsoNormal">Hello—<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Are new planning board members allowed to vote on applications that were on the agenda and discussed before they became a member? We have an application that’s been going through planning board for over a year, and I wasn’t sure if our
new member would be allowed to vote on that item or not. <o:p></o:p></p>

Thanks in advance!<o:p></o:p></p>
