The <br />second task is specific to the particular COBG objectives and projects to be <br />funded during FY85/86. The Interim Community Development Committee is pre- <br />sently developing the Three-Year Plan. The I-COC encourages Council to begin <br />the appointment process for the permanent Community Development Committee in a <br />timely manner so that new committee members can be involved along with current <br />I-COC members in developing the annual statement of objectives and funding <br />program for the fiscal year which begins October 1, 1985. The I-COC feels <br />that a transition period will be useful to help educate the permanent COC <br />members on the important issues and to make the transition as smooth as <br />possible. <br /> <br />Council Action Requested: <br /> <br />Council is requested to approve the recommendations of the Interim Community <br />Development Committee. Following action by the Council in this regard, an <br />ordinance will be drafted for Council adoption. <br /> <br />RW:jw/HClbI5 <br />
