EDA BUSINESS <br /> Case #1 2012 Work Plan <br /> Economic Development/Marketing Manager Backman presented the Staff Report that gave an <br /> overview of the 2012 EDA Work Plan. <br /> Economic Development/Marketing Manager Backman explained two new additions to the work <br /> plan: membership in the Minnesota Commercial Association of Realtors (MNCAR) Exchange and <br /> the Twin Cities Gateway Convention & Visitors Bureau (CVB). <br /> Economic Development Consultant Mulrooney stated the most important part of MNCAR is the <br /> exchange of information regarding properties, etc. <br /> Discussion ensued regarding membership in MNCAR. <br /> Member Williams stated she has experience with MNCAR and it is an important resource and <br /> stated she thinks it is a good idea to become a member especially now that city economic <br /> development memberships are more common with MNCAR. <br /> Member McGlone stated that with trying to understand the roles of the HRA and EDA, he sees <br /> items on the work plan as shown in the guidelines that seem to be outside of the EDA purview. He <br /> stated the public could get the idea that the EDA can do something it cannot do. <br /> Chairperson Riley stated the board has struggled with this before and there does seem to be some <br /> overlap of responsibilities between the bodies. He stated there might be some language that needs <br /> to be clarified in the work plan. He stated the board's position is to make sure the City is as <br /> business friendly as possible. <br /> Discussion ensued regarding if and where the 167 47 commercial node redevelopment and <br /> obtaining a zip code for Ramsey fit on the 2012 EDA Work Plan. <br /> Motion by Member LeTourneau, seconded by Member Williams to approve the proposed 2012 <br /> Work Plan with a few tweaks in the language that were discussed in regards to the post office and <br /> code enforcement. <br /> Motion carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Riley. Members LeTourneau, Williams, Skaff, Steffen, <br /> and Wise. Voting No: Member McGlone. Abstain: None. Absent: None. <br /> Economic Development/Marketing Manager Backman suggested moving Case #3 before Case #2 <br /> as Scott Davy, General Manager of Comfort Suites was present for that case and as it is part of the <br /> 2012 work plan. <br /> Economic Development Authority/February 9, 2012 <br /> Page 2 of 5 <br />
