<br />Community Redevelopment Agency <br />March 12, 2010 <br />Page 4 <br />After a brief discussion regarding Sun Rail, it was decided to postpone scheduling a joint work session with <br />the City Commission until more information is available. Commissioner Solomon stated that she is the Commission <br />representative on the Seminole County CRA and she attends all the meetings. The Board requested Commissioner <br />Solomon to provide updates to the Board regarding the Seminole County CRA. <br />Mr. John Casselberry, 700 South Lost Lake Lane, Casselberry, Florida came forward.
