' BuSin~.~s Liaisons- <br /> <br />Mr. Hartley suggested that a more effective liaison team would consist of 2-3 <br />members that could work with a certain degree of confidentiality with the <br />prospective incoming business. <br /> <br />Mr. Alsdurf stated that the t~o-menber team would have to be very knowledgeable <br />as to what types of business Ramsey wants, financing methods, utilities <br />available, zoning, etc. <br /> <br />Mr. Hartley stated that tonight's joint council/staff/commission workshop <br />should reveal what kind of community is desired. <br /> <br />Consensus was that for now, all incoming business leads should be referred to <br />Ms. Norris and she will send that lead a letter welcoming them to consider <br />Ramsey as a location for their business. That letter should be followed up by <br />a phone call. <br /> <br />Mr. Alsdurf inquired as to why local business owners were not invited to the <br />joint meeting as they are affected by the goals and priorities of the City. <br /> <br />Mr. Hartley stated it was an oversight; that those business owners involved <br />with this Economic Development Compar[f should have been invited.

Mr. Hardin asked Mr. DeLuca and Mr. Alsdurf to research <br />ways of compiling such a packet and what should be included in the packet. <br /> <br />Mr. Hartley stated that there is a bill in the Senate right now dealing with <br />port authorities.
