Title
Recommendation to Approve the 2025 Mayor’s Economic Development Advisory Panel Meeting Schedule with Any Necessary Changes; Request Suggestions for Discussion Topics at Future Meetings
Body
To: Members of the Mayor’s Economic Development Advisory Panel
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This item is to approve EDAP’s 2025 meeting schedule.
BACKGROUND
At its July 20, 2016 meeting, Mayor’s Economic Development Advisory Panel (EDAP) formally adopted a set of Rules and Procedures, which stated that EDAP will have regular meetings “at least annually and as necessary to perform its duties.” This staff report is to recommend a 2025 meeting date, to survey EDAP members to determine potential scheduling conflicts, and to reschedule the meeting as necessary.
DISCUSSION
Staff recommend that EDAP continues to regularly meet on the second Wednesday of December in 2025, which will be December 10, 2025 at 6 p.m.
Staff recommend that EDAP reviews the proposed date to determine potential conflicts that would inhibit public participation and reschedule the meeting accordingly with EDAP’s approval.
At this time, staff also seeks EDAP’s ideas for discussion items at future meetings. If desired, EDAP may schedule a second regular meeting during the calendar year either now or as needed when major, timely issues emerge for EDAP’s guidance.
Recommendation
Staff recommend that EDAP reviews and approves its 2025 annual meeting(s) with any necessary changes.
Respectfully submitted by,
Eric Fonstein,
Development Manager
