Introduction:
The City Council is asked to establish a workshop with the members ofthe EDA Ad Hoc
'Committee for Monday, November 30th at 7:00 pm.
Background:
At its meeting of November 4th, the City Council heard a report from Community
Development Director Michael Leek on the preliminary recommendations of the EDA
Ad Hoc Committee. The consensus of the Council that evening was that a joint meeting
should be held with that group to hear further details on their recommendations, and to
more fully discuss economic development issues.
In checking with the members of the committ~e, it appears that Monday, November 30th
at 7:00pm will work as a meeting time.

We recommend that the workshop be scheduled as outlined above.
Relationship to Visioning:
This supports Goal D-"Vibrant, Resilient and Stable"; and Goal E-"Financially Strong".
Action Required:
If the Council concurs, it should, by motion, establish a workshop meeting to be held by
the City Council and the Economic Development Ad Hoc Committee on Monday,
November 30th, at 7:00 pm in the Council Chambers.
