Piggott, Anoka County Partners <br /> <br />Mr. Piggott appeared before Council to ask the Council to consider becoming members <br />of the partnership. He also provided an overview of the goal of the group and noted they <br />are trying to become a regional economic development organization for the County. <br /> <br />Mr. Piggott asked Council for $0.50 per capita or $1,800 per year membership. <br /> <br />Mr. Piggott indicated the goal is to have a budget of $450,000 one-third from county, one <br />third from cities and the other third from the private sector. <br /> <br />Mayor Capra indicated that a few years ago the county talked about forming an EDA <br />with taxing authority. She then asked if that was still in the works or not because they <br />wanted all the cities to buy into the EDA. <br /> <br />Mr. Piggott indicated that they have not forgotten that and still have plans to move <br />forward with an EDA. <br /> <br />Mayor Capra indicated that Council is looking at forming an EDA for the coming year <br />and the $1,800 for Centerville seems to be a reasonable amount and she would like Staff <br />to provide information and research into whether this is an appropriate investment for the <br />City. <br /> <br />Council Member Terway indicated that the City is beginning the downtown project so <br />this could really be beneficial. He then asked how they could get developers in here. <br />Page 2 of 8 <br />
