RE: RESOLUTION CREATING PROPOSED "BLUE RIBBON"
BOND COMMITTEE
Per your May 29, 1998 memorandum, attached is the "enabling legislation"which may be
used by the City Commission to create the Committee referenced above. You may also
want to have "appointing" resolutions prepared and placed on the same agenda for each
of the ten (10) members, so that we can simply "fill in the blanks" with the appointees'
names if the City Commission chooses to make its appointments at the upcoming meeting.
