The preliminary, but detailed, report was prepared by Capital Consultants Design Works. South Park and South East streets were among the high priority streets listed. The inventory report doesn't include alleys or state of Michigan streets. Commissioners will review the findings and submit comments to Capital Consultants.

Also at the meeting, Main Street manager, Hugh Conklin, reported Boyne City is one of 10 communities statewide chosen to participate in a pilot program. Michigan State University is offering the program known as "Creating Entrepreneurial Communities.Ó Charlevoix and East Jordan were also chosen.

The program's goal is to improve the state's economy by encouraging entrepreneurship within communities. Conklin will attend a four-day workshop and bring back knowledge and resources needed to encourage businesses. The commissioners approved $1,000 to help fund the program's education.

The next regular city commission meeting is 7 p.m., Tuesday, Feb. 13 at City Hall.
