Mrs. Schumacher called the meeting to order at 6:42 pm.

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.
