The Agenda

    The only item for action during this EDC board meeting was about the possible demolition of the building owned by the EDC, on 201 s 2nd Street. This is the building that housed the old DPS Driver's License Office. They received an estimate for $40,000 to included the foundation. The board reached a consensus to continue to look for possible bidders and continue planning.

Staff reports:

Ms Drussell invited "Workforce Solutions of Central Texas" to speak to the Board. Chris Gallen (Army Retiree) spoke about a wide range of topics to include "Hiring Our Heroes". It is a program where existing Field Grade Officers anf Senior NCOs start in the program 180 days out from retirement and the last 12 weeks of the program the Soldier is placed in an accepting firm and the salary is paid for by "Hiring Our Heroes".

There were three executive session items for Project Etch, Project Glow, and about the search for their new Executive Director. They came out and reported no action taken!
