But in an interview Monday when news of the impending resolution was first reported. Lewis and he hopes PBHA leaders will take his recommendations into document

"I had hoped that they would discuss with Dean Kidd their perspectives and desires, and work towards the kind of agreements I described," Lewis said at the time.
