Regular Council Meeting Minutes 7-19-10 Page 6 highlights for that. It's an application that we are working on with URS. It's for $600,000 worth of Federal funds. We have had two meetings with URS so far. It's been a collaboration with the administration of the Service Department, Administration, Finance and Planning Development. The most important part is that the Greenway Master Plan that was done through NOACA's TLC program was really intended to be leveraged for dollars to implement it. This is a pretty perfect opportunity to do that. We are positioned very well because we have worked with NOACA before and this will be working with NOACA again. The Council Resolution in support of the application is not needed until September but we wanted to get this in front of Council this evening. STANDING COMMITTEE REPORTS: Activities Committee - Mrs. Mills reported that we had our first band concert on July 15th. It was fairly well attended considering the hot weather. The University Heights Band played. It was a very good band. There were between 50-60 people there. The band played until 9:10 which is unusual. It was very good music, some John Philips Sousa, a good mixture of swing, everything. The next concert is the 29th and that's the Swing Band.

Everything's in order there. We have a lot of people calling us to know if their great-great grandfather is there, etc. One woman from Florida called her. She found her great- great grandmother.
