I recommend the Board use a similar process this year. <br />County Administrator Bonnie Johnson has spoken with Irv Rustad, Executive <br />Director of Lake Agassiz Regional Council, and his organization is willing to assist <br />the county. A contract will be forthcoming to engage their services. <br />SUGGESTED MOTION: <br />Move to approve a contract with Lake Agassiz Regional Council, pending State's <br />Attorney review, for the 2009 flood mitigation buyout program. <br />K:\Sorum\FLOOD MITIGATION MEMO.doc <br />
