Motion by Member Steffen, seconded by Member Hardin, to approve $1,500 for the Draw <br />Summer Event Series, and direct staff to proceed with the program of Business of the Year for <br />2015. <br />Further discussion: Member Riley stated they are utilizing this as a business of the year and to <br />recognize a business they decide to highlight. He suggested that is what makes it appropriate for <br />the EDA to donate to and without that he thought it would seem more appropriate for another <br />City Department. <br />Chairperson Steffen thought they could look at having the business of the year incorporated into <br />one of the nights and maybe have their logo on the banner. He stated they will work with Mr. <br />Riverblood to make that happen. <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Steffen, Members Hardin, Burandt, Skaff, Riley, and <br />Williams. Voting No: None. Absent: Member Brunt. <br />4.05: EDA Updates <br />Econ. Dev. Mgr/Assistant City Administrator Brama reviewed purchase agreements and <br />prospects along with various other items with the Commission. <br />5. MEMBER / STAFF UPDATE <br />Ms. Nicole Wenberg updated the EDA on the status of the annual golf tournament. <br />The EDA reviewed the Staff Update. <br />Member Burandt wondered why they are not sending Econ. Dev. Mgr/Assistant City <br />Administrator Brama to the EDEM and Minnesota Marketing Environment Meetings because he <br />felt the networking was invaluable. <br />Chairperson Steffen indicated they are not a member and they would need to become a member <br />in order to have Econ. Dev. Mgr/Assistant City Administrator Brama attend these meetings. <br />Econ. Dev. Mgr/Assistant City Administrator Brama thought that was a good idea and would be <br />willing to look into this to figure out what the costs would be and bring this back to the next <br />EDA meeting for review. He thought this was something they should start pursuing. <br />6. ADJOURNMENT <br />Motion by Member Steffen, seconded by Member Hardin, to adjourn the meeting. <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Steffen, Members Burandt, Skaff, Hardin, Riley, and <br />Williams. Voting No: None.
