revaluation going on and so looking at taking that, you know, $13 million or thereabouts and spreading it over three or
four years would, you know, the goal would be to, as | said, stabilize the tax rate so we could, you know, project what

of shut it down, we would be able to repopulate the software with the data that we have on file. So | think we should
do that. To me, that is such a necessity that we should, you know, set that set that $500,000 aside before we even

President Wilshire
All set?
Alderwoman Kelly

where you're looking to accept the money on the 14" which would be the first reading. | suspect it will have a second

The timeline. So ideally we will do this outreach. We will continue to massage and craft a plan. I'd like to have some
data and you know, some sort of conclusion arrived at in mid-October. Ideally around your October 12" meeting and
hopefully the work we do will inform the subcommittee that will hear the resolution that is going to be presented to you
on September 14". So ultimately, the ideal would be to have some sort of finalized plan by mid to end the fall.
