permitting. Ms. Bergeron indicated that a list of all ongoing commercial and residential projects is
available in the last Quarterly Report from Development Services. The City is working with the County on
a request to revise language in the CRA allowing something other than capital projects, such as facade
grants or other smaller projects to help beautify the CRA district. The WSBB commercial has been
updated.

bringing Disney Institute to Volusia County on September 12th at the Brannon Center in New Smyrna

130 so far and the event will most likely sell out. Registrants are from diverse industries such as
education, retail, hospitality and manufacturing. Over$30,000 in sponsorship money has been brought in

done yet.
Mrs. Snow then thanked Bob Andrejkovics for agreeing to Chair the Legislative Affairs Committee for the
