9:12:15 AM Discuss Request for Proposals/Bids for Right to Farm County Property at Airport
 
Property acquired by the county for the airport obstruction project... The county is not required by law to bid this however, a request for proposals would be recommended. An agreement could be done for 5 years and then the process would be repeated. Mr. Hall said that he could draw up language requesting proposals. Commissioner Genter said it could be too late for this year if tillage has already been done or compensation would have to be provided. Commissioner Barnaby said if they agree to do this for the county owned farmland, it should be done for all properties. Commissioner Genter said he would be in favor of the request for proposals and those already farming the other properties should be informed that at the end of this farming year what the intentions will be with proposals. The Dieringer property will be the request for proposal for one year opportunity.
9:19:40 AM Review Cash Flow Forecast - General Fund Mr. Hall reviewed his forecast over the year and future years. He indicated part of this would be a guess such as interest income. Several projections with different increases in sales tax were presented. With no increase the county would start using the carryover more and more. Commissioner Genter expressed that he did not think it would be good to have two conflicting tax levys on the ballot. Work sessions will be had for more attention to this issue and to keep an eye on what adjustments might be necessary.
