<br />Vice Chairman Davis wanted to know if there was a way to delay the installation of the lights at the
<br />North County Soccer Field in the Capital Improvements Element of the Comprehensive Plan, since the
<br />economy has slowed everything down.
<br />Administrator Baird informed the Board and discussion ensued regarding the soccer fields not
<br />receiving their Certificate of Occupancy (CO), and the possibility of moving their restrooms closer to
<br />the girls' softball fields so they can be used by more than one group at a time.
<br />Chairman O'Bryan suggested that the North County Soccer Association make a presentation on their
<br />capital plan and status to the Board.
<br />Chairman O'Bryan asked if there were comments from the public; there were none.
