At <br /> the Board's September 15th meeting, it rescinded that closure and instructed that the center <br /> remain open for the remainder of the calendar year. On October 201h, the Board adopted a <br /> budget amendment providing that funding. At that meeting, the Board also requested staff to <br /> come back to this meeting to discuss funding possibilities to keep the site open for the <br /> remainder of the budget year.
