4 <br />B. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION ACTIVITY STATUS REPORT <br />The Board of County Commissioners was provided for <br />information only a status report for the period July, 1990 through <br />March, 1991. The report detailed accomplishments and future activities <br />of the Economic Development Commission. <br />C. AGRICULTURAL ADVISORY BOARD PROGRESS REPORT <br />Planning Director Marvin Collins gave a report on the <br />status of a Committee proposal for a Development Rights Program (PDR). <br />Two reports have been prepared by the Agricultural Advisory Board which <br />were included in the agenda packet. The Agricultural Advisory Board <br />would like for the County Commissioners to give them some direction on <br />what they should do next with this proposal. The Commissioners <br />suggested that the Agricultural Advisory Board meet with the Township <br />Advisory Boards in each township to receive public reaction and comments <br />to the plan. It will be important that the citizens understand this <br />program because more than likely it will need to be funded with a <br />special referendum. It could then be placed on the public hearing <br />docket for August. The Commissioners agreed to enlarge the committee <br />with representatives from the municipalities. At the same time, the <br />goals can be defined. <br />Commissioner Willhoit asked that the Manager put together <br />some ideas for developing a charge for the expanded committee. He made <br />reference to the special legislation obtained several years ago and <br />stated that if there is sufficient interest, this is something the <br />committee could work on which includes an ordinance. <br />D.
