*Minutes for the August 21, 2019, Stormwater Management Board Meeting
Motion to approve the minutes was made by Farris and seconded by Merideth. The minutes were unanimously approved.
IV. NEW BUSINESS
Gibson explained the attached Annual CRS Report is required because of the Repetitive Loss Structures. It is updated to include activities from the last year. The City of Jonesboro is currently classified as a Class 8. Bevill questioned if the City’s goal is to lower the Class ranking. Light stated the City would like to be a classified lower but there is not the staff or funding. A Class 6 ranking would require changes to be done in the Inspections Department regarding the Building Code.

Wyatt stated he was pleased with the feedback from the bus tour. The Board would like to take another trip in the fall. Light stated because of funding the JET bus can only be used so many hours a year for things such as this and those times have to be coordinated with the Mayor. He will check into the availability for a fall tour because only a small portion of the City was covered.
