Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council Monday, August 19, 2019 Page 5 Mary Betsa (Council) — House Bill 9 Training took place in this room this morning. It was very successful. There were about 50 people in attendance. The State Auditor's office asked that we pass along their appreciation for the use of the facilities. Ronald Wynne (Finance) - Mr. Wynne reported, tomorrow we have our annual meeting down at the County building with the Tax Incentive Review Committee to review the performance of our 5 TIF Agreements. I will provide Council with an update of that at the next meeting. I don't anticipate any issues with that. Secondly, several months back Council declared surplus 7 items from our Service Department and authorized them to go on sale with Govdeals.com. We just completed the first auction cycle. We were successful in selling 5 of those items for a total of $22,700. The other two items did not sell and we put them back on the auction website to take another run at it. I will give you an update on those two once I have it. Anthony J. Coyne (Law) - I will reserve my comments for a few items that are on the agenda at the appropriate time.

Everyone's done a phenomenal job helping to get it to come all together. Thank you to all. I would also like to give thanks to everyone who helped participate in the Community Cookout.

I saw a lot more residents come out. Thank you to Mrs. Mills, Mr. Schutt, Mr.
