fact shall be recorded in the minutes of the meeting.
Annually the Town Plan and Zoning Commission
shall appoint from among the electors of the Town the number of representatives
to which the Town shall by law be entitled to any regional planning
authority of which it is a member, one such representative to be a
member of such Commission.
