Histol"'l Article V of the Economic Development Authority provides that: The EDA shall elect a president, vice-president, treasurer and secretary annually. The Economic Development Authority last revised its bylaws in 2007. At that time, the EDA elected officers for 2007 including: President: Commissioner Millar Vice-President: Commissioner Erickson Treasurer: Commissioner Hedberg Ass't Treasurer: Staff Ralph Teschner, Finance Director Secretary: Staff Charlotte Green, Administrative Assistant Current Circumstances For the first time following the departure of the Economic Development Director, the Economic Development Authority is meeting to conduct normal business. Before addressing the agenda, the Authority should appoint a president, vice-president, treasurer, assistant treasurer and secretary. The Authority could decide to reappoint Commissioners Millar, Erickson and Hedberg considering none had real opportunity to act in their respective capacities since no meetings occurred since they were originally appointed in 2007. Or the EDA may wish to consider that Mayor Myser is the Council liaison to the Economic Development Advisory Committee and both Mayor Myser and Councilor Hedberg are the Council liaisons for downtown redevelopment and consider that in making their appointment. Conclusion The Authority should appoint its officers for 2010. ISSUES: The Authority could reappoint the existing officers or select new ones as it sees fit. If existing officers are appointed, Jerilyn Erickson should be named assistant treasurer. The City Attorney is counsel to the EDA. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Adopt a resolution appointing officers for 2010. 2.
