Agency Member Kronenberg stated that the Council will
probably be taking a position on the one-half cent sales tax and
feels that perhaps the Agency should take a look at the specifics
of the project. He stated if other Agency Members feel they want
to take a position on the measure itself, the Agency could prob-
ably wait until the City Council makes a decision, and then per-
haps follow along.

sales tax issue be placed on the February 21st Agenda.
