ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION – OCTOBER 8, 2025 3 <br />Commissioner Sorensen will keep time. He can give a hand signal at 5 minutes, at 1 minute and <br />then a wrap it up hand signal. <br /> <br />Senior Planner Fransen said the name tags will be numbered. As we move to table discussions <br />they will go to the table with the corresponding number on their name tag. Then there will be the <br />drawing. Commissioner Poelzer will pull the winners. <br /> <br />Senior Planner Fransen asked for feedback. <br /> <br />Council Liaison Rousseau would like a photo of Staff and a photo of the EDC Members. <br /> <br />Senior Planner Fransen will ask everyone to share a photo that can be on a slide during the <br />introductions. <br /> <br />City Administrator Jagoe said it would be helpful to coordinate the numbers on the name tag <br />with a commissioner so they know in advance who will facilitate the table and who will take notes. <br />The thought is there will be four attendees to each table. We can go higher if the attendance is <br />more than the RSVP number. <br /> <br />Commissioner Gronquist asked if the name tag will have their name and business. <br /> <br />Staff confirmed. <br /> <br />Commissioner Poelzer asked if we should mention the opening on the EDC. She thought someone <br />at the event may want to join the commission. It would be good to have information outlining what <br />we do. <br /> <br />Senior Planner Fransen said we can include it in the presentation, or we could mention it during <br />the table discussions. If someone seems interested or energetic the EDC Member could invite <br />them. <br /> <br />Chair Murchie said he will mention it at the beginning and instruct that attendees can discuss it <br />at the table. He said someone reaching out first and us following up is good. <br /> <br />Senior Planner Fransen can add a note in the script. She also added some ice breaker type <br />questions since the last meeting. <br /> <br />City Administrator Jagoe said Senior Planner Fransen will have questions printed for the <br />commissioners. <br /> <br />Senior Planner Fransen began discussion on the tasks list. She outlined which commissioners <br />will perform what tasks. <br /> <br />Discussion ensued regarding what time EDC members should arrive vs. when business owners <br />will arrive. There was discussion on how the room will be set up. <br /> <br />Senior Planner Fransen summarized the order for the event and noted who has already <br />volunteered to help after the event. She asked if any other commissioners can commit to after- <br />event help. Chair Murchie will help with tear down, Commissioners Isak and Gronquist can stay <br />after and be available in whatever capacity is needed.
