New Business
Bank On Program: Update from Mayor Garrett Nancolas. Bank On is a program that will get
people in the community into mainstream banking rather than check cashing loans with high
interest rates. The mayor discussed ideas on getting the word out about Bank On, suggestions
were through the schools, as it has been successful in the past with other community events
such as the Y, Indian Creek. Mayor gave example from San Francisco City how successful the
program has been. The City gives every 3rd grader $50 and the family has to match by a certain
time and later this money to post secondary education. Shows to be successful if kids get
started at 3rd grade.
