introduced them.

quested each Committee Chairman meet with his committee and prepare a
report to be presented at the next meeting,,
Glen Sherwood introduced the guest speakers from VISTA, They were:
Jerry Schlatter, Dick Marshall, and Bill, Popp.
A report was given on the Study and planning of the needs of the highway
development between now and the year 1990. This covered the building of
new freeway and express-gays and upgrading the ones now in existence. The
Study was based on the employment, population transportation, and indus-
trial growth in the area. Each phase was based on the cost and development
over a five (5) year period. Rapid transit has been considered and consulted,
but not worked into the plan as now shown. It is felt, however, that some-
thing could be done to take advantage of the two plans.
There was a short question and answer period following the Speakers reports.
The next meeting will be held DECEMBER 7tho at the Kent City Hall at 8100
