Mayor Dakan explained that this Special Meeting was with

involves numerous funding sources including CDBG, E.D.A.,
Farm Hone and a local match.

Project of wh_ch some would be City crews helping in site
prepara'vi on, possible site construction, and etc. They are
also asking the commitment of $50,000 towards the other

requested from Council at this time was authorization for
