But if Claire's comfortable that um we take it on me viewing the previous meeting, even though I wasn't here, um we can go ahead and you can approve it.

1:56

2:42

Uh next item, new business, April Tiff report.

2:48

This is the um report that we compile um each year for this body.

2:54

Um so this is uh for uh the year of 2025, and you'll see that within this by Indian code, we are required to um list the commission members and their offices as well as their terms, the employees and uh salaries for this office, um any recipients that will loan or a grant, which you'll see is the um development county school court uh educational program.

3:23

We need to list the amount of funds uh at the close of the calendar year, so you'll see the TIFS that are listed there, as well as expenditures and revenues, uh, as well as the areas that have been established when those expire.

3:39

Um we have a summary of activities that were accomplished during 2025, and then you'll see the attachments which have the principal and um interest obligations, the lease obligations, and then our tip parcel list as well.

3:56

If you have any questions about those, um I'm happy to answer them.

4:01

Um if we receive uh your approval, then this just gets submitted to uh Linda Muller and the controller's office, and uh it's uploaded into the LGF.

4:14

So I guess that that's my one question is just you know, um obviously we do this and we comply with the post number requirement, which I believe is in gateway, correct?

4:27

So um do we also uh put this on the website or anything?

4:32

Just is that no, it's that's not a requirement of Indiana Code is required for it to be uh for it to be filed with uh with a gateway.
