Strategic Plan for Economic Development
Ms. Goodroad introduced the Ehlers team who were in attendance to continue the strategic
planning discussion. Mr. Dahl provided an overview of last month’s SWOT analysis and then
EDC members were broken into three small groups to discuss eight proposed goals Ehlers
identified based on the group’s SWOT outcomes that centered around tax base, business
support, job growth, housing, transportation and economic development resources. Notes
from those conversations were shared with the larger group and Ehlers staff will incorporate
the feedback into the next strategic planning session in June.
