PUBLIC Q & A - Karen Flynn of Parker/Barrows PTO was

with a for profit business to increase our resources.

MINUTES - October 3, 2002 minutes reviewed and
approved
TREASURER'S REPORT - Anne reported that she is still
learning the system. She presented a detailed report
and it was accepted.
DISTRIBUTION OF GRANT BOOKLETS - Booklets were given
out to each member. Note was made on 0215 that it
can't be approved since the applicant misunderstood
Pass Grants. Also on 0218, the applicant misled the
council regarding the venue and the time. Also
ineligible.
'Discussion followed about our review of the grant
applications. We should be on the lookout for
tentative plans and/or vague plans. We have a request
for funds totalling $137,201. We can fund $3,760.
Regarding administrative costs of $300 or so, Allison
requested approval not to take any administrative
costs from the grant allocation and that was agreed.
A check of the Community Input Survey revealed that
people are most interested in funding arts education
in the schools and nature/science projects. We should
also look at the issue of partial funding and check
for collaborative projects vs. individual during our
review.
Interviews will be set up every 10 minutes at our
