Minutes for Approval
Mr. Bateman questioned Ms. Burd being shown in the last meeting minutes as a Public
Member who needed to live in the area of the TIF. Mr. Olson said the minutes were from
the meeting prior to the ordinance creating the TIF district. Before the TIF is created,
there must be someone on the Board who lives in the district. Ms. Orr added that since
there were more than 75 units in the TIF, a housing report was needed, triggering the
need for a resident of the district. It is the exception to the rule, she said. She said at
the annual meeting, there are no votes, just reporting. Mr. Olson then entertained a
motion to approve the February 13, 2018 minutes. So moved by Ms. Orth and seconded
by Ms. Banovetz. Approved by unanimous voice vote.
