BUSINESS NETWORK MEETING <br /> By: Megan Wald <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />Staff is happy to report (after much frustration and printing problems) that the Business <br />Connection was distributed to the business community the week of February 2, 2004. The <br />newsletter included an article about the Business Network Meeting and staff received attendance <br />confirmations from a representative o£ Mark Kennedy and Jim Lundeen from RJM. A verbal <br />update will be provided at the meeting as to who will be in attendance. <br /> <br />Observations: <br /> <br />An individual invitation to the Business Network Meeting is currently at the post office and <br />therefore should be delivered to the business community by Friday, February 6th or Monday <br />February 9th. The invitation requests that each business RSVP by February 20th. Staff will update <br />the EDA through email on Friday, February 20th as to who will be attending the event. If the <br />EDA is still interested in placing a personal phone call to designated businesses that have not <br />RSVP reminding them to attend the network meeting, staff will coordinate such efforts through <br />email the week of February 23rd. Staff is willing to supply a list of key businesses that should be <br />in attendance but have not RSVP to the event. The EDA can then determine who should place <br />the phone calls. <br /> <br />Staff would like to utilize LeTourneau's Catering for the continental breakfast. LeToumeau's <br />catering provided fruit, muffins, and pastry trays at the 2003 event. The variety trays were well <br />received, however if the EDA would like to provide input into an alternative menu choice, staff <br />is very interested in obtaining any suggestions. <br /> <br />Please let Staff know if you will be attending the event by Friday, February 20th. <br /> <br />EDA Action: <br /> <br />Based on Discussion <br /> <br />EDA: 2.9.04 <br /> <br /> <br />
