NEW BUSINESS:

1. RIDER AND WILSON ACTION SUIT- Jack Thompson brought up the Action Suit going on between two property owners over building onto a utility easement, which was discussed as a violation of City Ordinances.

QUESTION & ANSWER:
1. Sid Wolfensen brought up a vehicle that had been parked half way on the grass and half way on the street for over three weeks on Fletcher Christian. He stated it is a rental house and he has called the police. Janet Hampton stated her inspection does not include these types of incidents.
2. Al Galli thanked JBIC for all their support on Pathways. He stated there is one more grant pending at the GLO and there will be a 95% chance Jamaica Beach will get it. This cycle grant will be used to put pathways on Jolly Roger. He asked that the board take in to consideration donating to the next grant cycle.
