She felt strongly about <br />helping out existing non-profit opportunities such as Open Doors for Youth, and that a small dollar <br />amount could have a huge impact on a non-profit with uses such as help with rental assistance. <br /> <br />Chair Chuba and Commissioner Caswell stated they would prefer aiding projects with smaller dollar <br />amounts rather than one large project. <br /> <br />Commissioner Beaudry stated if a liaison is needed, he would volunteer. <br /> <br />Staff will review the suggestions and bring back more information at a future meeting. <br /> <br />9.
