Economic Development Commission: No Action Required.

What does the Economic Development Commission do?

Given all the attention given to Economic Development, you’d think the City’s Economic Development Commission would have their hands full coming up with recommendations on what the City should be doing and that they would be busy in their meetings trying to solve the problems that are percieved to exist. But no, look at this agenda . . . are they merely a platform to discuss things, or are they going to do something?
