A. President’s Report:

Jerry read the proposed lease agreement in full.   The agreement will not be signed without an in-kind dollar amount in paragraph 3.  In-kind minimum lease was suggested at $500.00 to $1,000.00 per year, with a value of $25.00 per hour for our labor.  Section10.c. is not applicable and will be removed or changed.  
a. The lease agreement requires us to maintain liability insurance in an amount of not less than $1,000,000.00.  Lewis is getting insurance bids.
b. Jerry suggested that we present an annual report to the city.
