�27.4 <br /> Mr. Bergman presented a report to the Board of Commis- <br /> sioners on the activities of the Industrial Revenue and Bonding <br /> Authority for the past several months. He said there had not <br /> ' nn a great deal of interest from industry in development due <br /> to the high interest rates. He added that funds had been expended <br /> for the financing of a Metro Atla's which would be ready for dis- <br /> tribution..in. the next few months. ..Mr. Bergman cited. a letter._ , _.._ ... __ <br /> from former Board Chair, Anne Barnes, which inquired about a. <br /> ,ester and sewer extension policy for the County.

Commissioner Marshall suggested <br /> i <br /> a friendly amendment, that the fund be self liquidating rather than <br /> ievolving. Commissioner Willhoit said he had no problem with that; <br /> basically he feels that the mechanics should be left up to the <br /> Authority to develop. <br /> The County Attorney told the Board it would have to have <br /> "specific statutory guidance" in any such policy for financing, <br /> interest rates, and method of repayment. Commissioner Willhoit <br /> said he felt that was a "mechanics" area which should be left to::the <br />
