The Boone Town Council voted to eliminate a task force that was supposed to be its interface with the Downtown Boone Development Association. It will continue to operate under an interim agreement with the task force until the end of the fiscal year.

The DBDA is responsible for administering the tax revenues paid by downtown merchants for everything from community events and festivals to benches, maps and parking study plans.

A meeting is scheduled for February 10 to plan what the DBDA will do while it is still around, and what will happen thereafter.
