Ms. Eldridge presented a draft letter that will be sent to each

light enfor%ement. There will be a press conference held

Yvonne Haag and Charlotte Neiman presented a proposed logo for
the Board to review and asked for input and suggestions. Mr.
Loeb said that since the Board's main objective is to develop a
community-policing program for our city that he believes the logo
should be more people oriented. Ms. Neiman agreed and said she
would work on including that suggestion in the logo.
Ms. Sullivan presented the financial report ending July 31, 1999,
and a memo of contingency plans. The Board discussed both items
at length. Mr. Loeb inquired about the lighting project
indicating zero money expended. Ms. Eldridge explained that the
invoices amounting to approximately $23 ,200 are in Dave Seiler's
office awaiting approval. The Board discussed the
telecommunications exemption. During the year 2001 Ms. Sullivan
stated that key decisions will need to be made in preparation for
the 2002 election. One is whether the District will ask the
voters to approve the continuation of the 1/8 cent sales tax or
increase the funding to 1/4 cent. The other item of concern is if
the telecommunications exemption will continue or will it be
repealed. Mr. Loeb suggested that each Board member contact
their appointing Council Member to discuss these two items with
them. Mr. Loeb will also write a letter to be included in the
packets to the City Council presenting these options. After
further discussion of Ms. Sullivan's financial report and
contingency plan, Mr. Loeb was presented with a sworn statement
to be made a record of the minutes.

Re: Financial Statements for Fiscal Year ended July 31, 1999
Enclosed are the unaudited Financial Statements for the Crime Control and Prevention District
for the Fiscal Year ended July 31, 1999. We believe that these statements fairly reflect the
financial position of the District, and the activities for the fiscal year, in all material respects.
However, they have not yet been audited, and are therefore subject to final adjustments.
