MoU letter in Board Discussion. Said that there was three things they were interested in: Stormwater management, that the Tribe pay all costs related to improvements on the land and buildings and property taxes on said land if they take it into trust.
Community Development basically was looking at increases of fees, an eight percent across the board increase, increase in fees for remodeling and other said non-new housing fees (like minor electrical work, plumbing and replacing walls.) Fee increase for monitoring habitat and other woodland functions.. Also includes staff reductions and some other minor things... Marc had a hand in looking things over and making possible corrections and changed to the subject.
List goes on and on, so please read the agenda or speak to Marc, Betty Sue, Steve Stuart or Bill Barron if one has any questions...
Steve Stuart is at a sustainability conference and was not able to attend this weeks session of the Board.
