Patrick discussed the grant. We do need an extension. The final review is being done now and it will be sent to the Eau Claire Lakes Property Owners Association and the Committee for their review. Then after the review, Scott McCurdy will make a presentation. The scope of the grant may have changed and Patrick will check on this.

 

Carol LeBreck asked why we never saw the grant and who actually did the work on the Lake Management plan on the lakes? It was suggested that maybe Scott could come and talk to us at the next meeting. Patrick will talk to him about this.

 

We looked at the Economic Development Plan. We need to add the Telecommunication section and Patrick will add that. There was discussion on the strengths and weaknesses for attracting businesses to Barnes.

 

Patrick handed out the Transportation drafts for us to go over at the next meeting. We will also go over the Intergovernmental Cooperation Development at the next meeting.
