GANG RESISTANCE TASK FORCE; METRO COG DUES; WATER RESOURCE DISTRICT STUDY; BUDGET GUIDELINES; VETERANS SERVICE OFFICE REPORT; EXTENSION AGENT DEVELOPMENTAL LEAVE; EXTENSION ADVISORY COUNCIL MEETING; VECTOR AND WEED CONTROL UPDATE, Committee reports Mr. Eckert attended a meeting of the Metropolitan Gang Resistance Community Task Force last week. Mr. Wieland reported that the Fargo-Moorhead Metropolitan Council of Governments budget request will be increased for next year because they anticipate a revenue shortfall due, in part, to a change in federal government funding. They are showing some fiscal responsibility in that they plan to eliminate one position from the payroll, he said. The Water Resource District study committee concluded their meetings on June 25, 1996, and Mr. Wieland asked to place it on the next commission agenda for information purposes. A suggestion was made to hold a public hearing on the committee's recommendations, and that it be held in conjunction with the annual Fall Township Officer's Association meeting in Casselton. Mr. Montplaisir asked for consensus from the commissioners on what to use for a salary figure in preparing 1997 county budget requests. He said county department heads recommend a 3% cost of living allowance for preliminary budget purposes, and commissioners were in agreement to use that figure. Mrs. Schneider provided copies of a report to commissioners from Kathy Hogan and James Brent regarding Veterans Service Office activities.
