J. Ingerson explained to the applicant that there are only three members sitting on the Board and all cases heard need three affirmative votes to be granted. She explained that the applicant has the right to ask for a postponement until there are five voting members sitting on the Board. If the applicant chooses to continue with the hearing and it is denied they cannot use lack of a full Board as grounds for a rehearing.

She asked the applicant to tell the Board if they would like to postpone the hearing when the case is called before the Board.
