Ordinance establishing economic development target areas, which was
accomplished by the passing of Ordinance No . 7267-83 on November 14,

For purposes of increasing established economic development target
areas for purpose of issuing economic development commission bonds
for certain economic development facilities , the Economic Development

existing target area. The proposed Ordinance is to likewise have
the Issuer designate the additional area to be target areas ,
Your passage of this Ordinance will be appreciated.
