The question was brought up and discussed regarding whether the C.R.A. as an agency does in fact want an Advisory Board or more specifical1Yt do they want the D.D.B. members as an Advisory Board. Also, does the Board wish to continue the one mill tax levy as presently structured or do away with completely or partially? Chairman Thompson suggested that the Board hold a special meeting on the 18th of this month after Ed Armstrong has had the opportunity to investigate these options with certain city people. Mr. Armstrong will report back on the 18th to the Board on these issues and the Board will discuss and decide which way to pursue. The question was called and the Board approved unanimously. The next meeting will be April 18th at 5:30 P.M. for the purpose of discussion this issue only.
