1. TWIN CITY MONORAIL, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FUND APPLICATION, PUBLIC HEARING, 7:00 P.M.
Thomas Anderson explained that Twin City Monorail would like to make an application to
the State for Economic Development funds to buy out a competitor in North Carolina.
He stated that part of the operation would be carried out in Medina and the other portion
in the City of Glenwood so the two cities would need to enter into a Joint Powers Agree-
ment for the purpose of applying for the maximum amount allowed, $250,000. He explained
that the cities would receive the first $100,000, plus interest, that is paid back and
may use that money for any other economic development projects. He stated that the
return of money to each city would be based on the amount of jobs created in that city.
Donna Roehl explained that Glenwood would complete the application and prepare the
Joint Powers Agreement for Medina's approval and because Twin City Monorail wished to
finalize the purchase of the company on September 1st the Council was being asked to
adopt a resolution authorizing that an application could be made.
