Attorney Report: Mr. Hollenbeck
Attorney Hollenbeck reports legal notices were published for proposed budget. Said our conservancy is lucky to ahve money in the bank, so there is no need to borrow to pay our bills. 

Attorney opens meeting for public hearing of our budget and no public are present. 

Mr. Hollenbeck tells board of two new laws governing conservancy districts ... previously the COunty Council received our proposed budget and could give non-binding recommendations - now they can approve, disapprove or reduce. The DLGF since ruled and said conservancy districts are elected boards and no County Council approval is needed. The second allows only @ 3.8% growth rate. Our 2009 budget was $79,750.00 and our proposed 2010 is $82,780.00, less than 3.8%.

This concludes the open hearing for the 2010 budget, which will be adopted at the September 12th meeting.

Attorney brings up the fact that Brian Wood is a board member and being paid by the district for internet service, thus have Brian sign a Conflict of Interest form at September meeting.
