the allocation for the Mayors Breakfast would come from the existing fund balance in that account and this would be the approach in the future as the event is supposed to be self supporting,
the allocation for the Grand Opera House is to be used to compensate the Grand for storage of tables and chairs used at Live at Lunch and to for the purchase of additional tables and
chairs as needed. Megan Hoopman, Kurt Koeppler and Jim Stapel agreed to meet separately to develop a recommendation on funding the balance of the proposed budget items to be considered
at the January meeting, at which time the budget would be finalized.
