He suggested they put <br />together a work plan that would follow the Council's strategic plan. This would help the EDA <br />track the progress. <br />Chairperson Steffen asked if they still wanted to put the items into different priorities. <br />Economic Development Manager Brama thought there was not a real need for this. <br />Member Williams asked if the HRA has similar types of plans or goals and should the EDA be <br />looking at including the HRA work plan into the EDA work plan. <br />Economic Development Manager Brama indicated he was not aware of any HRA work plans but <br />would look into it. <br />Economic Development Authority /October 9, 2014 <br />Page 4 of 8 <br />
