8. OML Legislative Luncheon.  Please confirm if anyone can join me for the 2015 OML Legislative Reception that will be held on March 18, 2015 from 6 to 7 p.m.

9. Annual Dinner-Wood County Economic Development.  A copy of the invitation to the 22^nd Annual Dinner is attached to my report.  This is a Council meeting night, but it would benefit North Baltimore Elected Officials to attend this event as a unified group to help make North Baltimore’s presence recognized and valued in Wood County.  Is there a protocol or past practice for cancelling a regular Council meeting and requiring attendance at this type of event?
