Good afternoon, Main Street!
I've heard from the following Main Street communities that plan to apply for an MSIP project:

  *   Duncan
  *   Enid
  *   Freedom
  *   Jenks
  *   Kendall Whittier
  *   Muskogee
  *   Owasso
  *   Perry
  *   Ponca City
  *   SOBO Tulsa
  *   Tahlequah
If you plan to apply for an MSIP project and are not on the list, please let me know by close of business tomorrow.
All I need at this point is:

  *   A very brief project description (one sentence)
  *   The amount you plan to request
We must report anticipated projects and requested amounts to the Oklahoma Finance Authority, so your response will help us provide an accurate projection.
Thank you!
Buffy

Happy Friday, Main Street!
As I mentioned on Tuesday's call, I would appreciate knowing if you plan to submit an MSIP project this year. The application period opens September 1.
This information will be very helpful as Jon Chiappe prepares to address the Oklahoma Finance Authority Board next month. Please send the information to me or Karla by August 19.
All we need at this point is:

  *   Brief project description - One sentence is fine.
  *   Amount you plan to request
Please keep in mind that you are not committed to the project or amount at this point. You can make changes as you develop your application. We simply want to give Jon and the Board an idea of what to expect.
Thank you, and have a great weekend,
Buffy
