we also have on agenda, Renewal Task Force, which is here to talk about Red Barn liquor license. WE have been working on remodeling health clinic at Nahatahdziil, Ariz., and we have been working with Fort Defiance Health Corporation for several years on geting all agreements in place and finally got construction going. The renovated health center will open mid-January 2015 and that will bring in more employees. There will be dental services and other health services provided.
