REPORT:	Assistant County Attorney Jess McCarty read the foregoing proposed resolution into the record. Chairwoman Bell asked Ms. Wendi Norris, General Services Administration Director, to work with the County Attorney’s Office to craft appropriate legislation to ensure that donated surplus items remained in the possession of the intended recipient; that those items be used for the purposes intended and if not, a reverter clause be incorporated to prevent surplus items donated by the County from being sold for profit. Commissioner Edmonson asked to be listed as a co-sponsor to this proposed resolution. Hearing no further questions or comments, the Committee proceeded to vote on the foregoing proposed resolution as presented. SPECIAL NOTE: Commissioner Monestime submitted his memorandum dated June 9, 2011, entitled, "request for inclusion of item on the June 21, 2011 Board of County Commissioners Meeting" that requested the Board of County Commission (BCC) Chairman Joe A.
