the AHB's priorities submitted for the recent Council work retreat had been included in
Council Members' preparatory packets.
Work Program:
Chair Rios noted that the Board would be revisiting its work program in an upcoming
meeting, and would be making decisions on how to accomplish the tasks at hand.

that there was a strikeout on Item III A., Impact Fee Rebate Program. Member
Browning hoped that it was a typographical error, as the Board fully intends to revisit
this strategy.

was being included as part of the AHB Subcommittee's "Current Status" report to
Council.
