Mary Lou Berger, speaking on behalf of County Commissioner Burt Aaronson,
District 5 gave an update on future traffic signal installation:

Venture Way & Hagen Ranch Road has flashers; road & bridge
are waiting for a ramp completion.

Boynton Beach Blvd & Acme Dairy Road, target date is estimated as December

Cedar Point Blvd. & Mil. Trail, delayed till Aug.

Flavor Pict & Hagen Ranch Road, target date is early June.

Pipers Glen & Avalon—the traffic count is not yet high enough
to warrant a traffic light.

Danna Ackerman-White reporting for County Commissioner Shelley Vana:
Hypoluxo Rd. Flyover target date is March, 2010.
Road construction at Hagen Ranch Road and Boynton Beach Blvd. will be completed in about 90 days.

Wendy Lipsich, District Director for Robert Wexler: The federal financial stimulus benefits will be at least a $250 onetime payment to all who filed a 2008 income tax.

Guest Speaker: PBC Water Utilities Director, Bevin A. Beaudet, P.E.
Our cutting-edge processing plant provides the best and purest water.
Acceding to our request to reduce water use has caused a rise in the water price.
This is necessary to cover the loss in revenue from less water use.
Using reclaimed water for irrigation saves money
Water meters are now read each month instead of estimating the 2nd month costs.
This will eliminate some unnecessary high bills.
