Attached is a copy of the accomplishments for the past year with the work plan for <br />this coming year. The General Assembly approved $55,000 for each Council of <br />Governments for each year of the biennium. Your government is asked to release its share <br />(based on population) to the Council of Governments. A copy of the region's list of population <br />and funds is attached as is a copy of Section 16.27 of House Bill 168, the 1999 ratified <br />budget bill. <br />To this end you are asked to place on your next board agenda a resolution to release your <br />share of the economic development monies from the State Budget office to the Triangle J <br />Council of Govemments. You are reminded that just as with past years' economic <br />development funds, money not released reverts to the general fund; it is not made available <br />directly to local governments. The resolution to release funds is enclosed. When approved, <br />please return the o ' ina , WOOL sealed and fully executed document to the Council of <br />Governments at the earliest possible date. Retain a copy for your files. <br />Should you wish a representative of the Council of Governments to attend the board meeting <br />to provide additional information or respond to questions, please contact me at 558-9395. <br />Your cooperation and continued support are gratefully acknowledged and appreciated. <br />incerely, <br />`Dee A.
