WHEREAS, if COMBAT is continued by the voters, the Jackson County Legislature intends this fund balance to be used in the amounts and for the purposes, and to be distributed annually by the County over a period of five (5) years, as set out in the attached schedule; now therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED by the County Legislature of Jackson County, Missouri, that it is the
