7. EDA BUSINESS
A. 17-EDA-298, Appointment Members to the Economic Development
Commission (EDC)
Executive Director Ericson requested the EDA adopt a Resolution appointing a member to the
Economic Development Commission. He reported the new member would be filling Mr.
Dahlstrom’s position. He explained two individuals had applied for the position and the EDC
did not have a recommendation at this time. For this reason, staff recommended the EDA table
action on this item.
President Mueller asked if one of the individuals could be appointed to the EDC and the other
could serve as an alternate. Executive Director Ericson stated this was not within the EDC’s
bylaws or City Code.
Commissioner Meehlhause explained he attended the last EDC meeting. He indicated two of the
EDC members were supportive of one individual and two were supportive of the other. He
stated Jason Helgemo was willing to step down from his position in order for the new individuals
to be appointed. However, the Commission encouraged Jason not to step down due to the fact he
was a business representative. He provided further comment on the discussion regarding the
qualifications of the two potential candidates.
President Mueller questioned if this matter should be tabled until March to allow for further
discussion at the EDC level. Executive Director Ericson recommended the matter be tabled until
February 27th.
MOTION/SECOND: Mueller/Meehlhause. To Table Action on this Item to the February 27,
2017 EDA Meeting.
Ayes – 4 Nays – 0 Motion carried.
