• Staff Memo <br /> To: Economic Development Commission Members <br /> From: Cathy Bennett, Economic Development Coordinator <br /> Date: July 18, 1996 <br /> Subject: Discussion of the EDC's Advisory Responsibilities <br /> (5.A.) and Procedures for Communication Between the EDC <br /> and EDA <br /> Several EDC members were in attendance at the July 8, 1996 Council work session <br /> regarding EDC's request for guidance from the EDA on what items and recommendations <br /> they should be reviewing. It's clear that there is some difficulty in gauging what should <br /> and should not be discussed by the EDC and how recommendations should be formally <br /> considered by the EDA. The EDA suggested the EDC review how other Cities EDA and <br /> EDC's communicate. <br /> I contacted 15 Cities that have EDA's. Six of those have an advisory commission. Delane <br /> Welsch, Cindy Carlson, Brian Sjoberg and I were able to attend other commission <br /> meetings this month to evaluate what topics are discussed and how much responsibility <br /> is provided to the advisory commissions. Please be prepared to give a report on the <br /> meetings attended so the group can discuss how we may better communication with the <br /> EDA. <br />
