Report of the Mr.Nis~on stated the judge
Attorneys had returned a decision in
the condemnation lawsuit,ruling
in favor of the Districts on the amount of land requested.
Mr.Nisson and Mr.Ashton reported the three attorneys
had developed an outline on “streamlining”the adminis
trative agency and concurred in.the recommendation that
each District adopt its individual budget;and stated that
routine business of the Districts and disbursement of funds
within the amounts so budgeted may then be administered
by whatever agency the District Boards establish.

trative agencies will be presented for consideration:

District,operating under the Joint Powers Act

later on even less often,
