It's a 3 year agreement with an annual cost of a $155,000 remaining throughout the life of the agreement." (Mister Weiss). The disclosure was made to clarify the late update added to the packet. The committee report on education and associated items proceeded with no further questions and moved to a vote later in the meeting.
