            This being the time and place fixed for a public hearing on the matter of the adoption of the proposed Dickinson County/Spirit Lake Urban Renewal Plan, the Chairperson first asked for the report of the Designated Representative with respect to the consultation held with the affected taxing entities to discuss the proposed Plan.  The Board was informed that the consultation was duly held as ordered by the Board, and that no written recommendations were received from affected taxing entities.  The report of the Designated Representative with respect to the consultation was placed on file for consideration by the Board.
