3. Treasurer's Report
Information being incomplete, no Treasurer's Report was presented.
A draft copy of the 1993 Financial Statement was reviewed
by the Board. Treasurer, Gary Oxman, asked Director Celva,
if he knew why that Fixed Assets, were shown as $15,577,
in the report, since our basic assets consisted of several
desks and two computers? Celva replied that he did not know,
but would find out. Boardmember Hathaway suggested that
the wording of the second sentence of the first paragraph,
in the Notes to Financial Statements, was not correct and
needed to be reworded.
4. Chairman's Report
Chairman Close briefly reviewed the results of the City Council
Public Hearing dealing with ''adult material". Discussion
ensued on the difficulty of supporting the board's position
in such an emotionally charged environment. Board members
expressed their frustration with the politics of Council's
decision and the fact that an opportunity seems to have been
lost. It was suggested that EDDA avoid becoming involved
in any of the issues that had political overtones and focus
in a narrow fashion on the successful programs currently
in our work program.
Acting Director of Financial Services, Frank Gryglewicz and
Chuck Reid discussed the process for review and change of
City ordinances that the City has instituted. A revised
Section 5, Chapter 1 of the Municipal Code was distributed
to board members, who were requested to submit any questions
or proposed changes to the EDDA office within two weeks.
This will be an ongoing process with business interests having
the opportunity for input regarding codes which affect their
businesses.
5. Director's Report
Director Celva reported that two new applications for Facade
Grants had been received. Work was still in progress on
two of the 1993 projects, but would be completed soon,
The~e being no further business the meeting was adjourned at
1:30 p.m.
