Motion by Member Hardin, seconded by Member Riley, to approve the October 11, 2018, <br /> minutes as presented. <br /> Motion carried. Voting Yes: Acting Chairperson Riley, Members Hardin, Kanaventi, and <br /> Lambrecht. Voting No: None. Absent: Chairperson Steffen and Members Burandt and <br /> LeTourneau. <br /> 4. EDA BUSINESS <br /> 4.01: 2019 Annual EDA Business Expo: Select Venue and Date <br /> Economic Development Manager Sullivan presented the staff report. <br /> Acting Chairperson Riley stated that in the past the event has been full at the Fountains and it <br /> would be interesting to have the event in a new venue. <br /> Member Hardin stated that he would be open to either option but would like to hear the opinion <br /> of staff. <br /> Community Development Director Gladhill agreed that the venue is tight, and individuals have <br /> had to be turned away because of lack of space. He stated that the event could grow if there is <br /> additional space. He stated that there could be more options for the event if there was additional <br /> space available. <br /> Economic Development Manager Sullivan stated that the area that would be used at Adrenaline <br /> would be larger than the space the City currently uses at the Fountains, which could allow the <br /> event to expand. He stated that there likely would be people using the soccer fields at the same <br /> time which could generate more participation to the City event. <br /> City Administrator Ulrich stated that he attended an event at Adrenaline earlier this fall for the <br /> Ramsey Rotary and it was a good venue. He stated that it would be a good opportunity to <br /> showcase the new business and also invite more participation from the sports community and <br /> different businesses than have been showcased in the past. He stated that this would provide an <br /> opportunity to grow the event now, and perhaps even more in the future. He agreed that people <br /> from the sports events would most likely visit the City event. <br /> Member Kanaventi agreed with using Adrenaline as the venue as it will provide additional space <br /> for the event. He stated that he has participated in a past business expo event and is was very <br /> crowded and made it difficult to do more than exchange information. <br /> Member Hardin asked if there would be an issue with parking if there were other sports events <br /> going on at the same time. <br /> City Administrator Ulrich stated that most of the parking is along the north side and perhaps the <br /> sports teams could be encouraged to park in the adjacent building parking lot. <br /> Economic Development Authority/November 8,2018 <br /> Page 2 of 5 <br />
