A motion was made by Mr. Anderson, seconded by Mr. Bateman, to
approve the minutes from the July 14, 2015 meeting as printed.
Motion passed.
Old Business: 1. Public Transportation: We received
a letter from Community Action exercising their option to suspend
service effective September 8th, since there is no state budget in
place and no executed agreement. A motion was made by Mr. Bateman,
seconded by Mr. Anderson, to add language to the current agreement
requiring services to be resumed within 30 days of an approved
agreement. Motion passed.
2. Events at Airport: Mr. Bateman has been in contact with
the individuals interested in this event. They are currently
considering the first weekend in June, 2016.
3. Website: Nothing to report.
4. North Greens Golf Course: Nothing to report.
5. Relight Scholarship Criteria/Community College Donation:
At the Chairman’s request, Mrs. Schumacher has meetings scheduled
with representatives from Heartland and Lincoln Land regarding the
donations from Relight. Heartland has expressed an interest in using
a portion of the funding for expansion of their Lincoln campus. More
information will be brought forward as discussions move along.

6. Referendum for Economic Development: Nothing to
report.
New Business
1. Tablets for Board Meetings: Mrs. Meagher and Mrs. Barr
have done research into the potential savings associated with
the use of tablets for board meetings, instead of providing
paper packets and supporting materials. Tablets can be purchased
for as little as $74 each, but the committee agreed a total of
$2000 should be enough to purchase tablets for all twelve
members. A motion was made by Mr. Hepler, seconded by Mr.
Anderson, to authorize the expenditure of up to $2000 for the
purchase of tablets.
Public Comments: None
A motion was made by Mr. Anderson, seconded by Mr. Hepler, to
adjourn the meeting. Motion passed. Meeting ended at 7:31 pm.
