DISCUSSION
The discussion today involved a review of the ‘Mission Statement’ and Goals of County of Chautauqua Industrial Development Agency (CCIDA).
The members reviewed, and agree that our ‘Mission Statement’ should not have any changes. The CCIDA Board consistently works toward complying with our mission throughout Chautauqua County.
The goals of the CCIDA were also reviewed, and ‘Business Attraction’ and ‘Business Retention’ areas were found to have no changes.
David Bryant suggested that we revisit the section titled ‘Capacity’, in regard to CCIDA goals. He brought attention to the last wording; ‘And develop internship programs’. David stated that developing internship programs was not a goal of CCIDA.
After further discussion, Michael Metzger motioned to strike this from the heading under ‘Capacity”. David Bryant seconded, and all members were in favor.
It was decided to correct this wording, and delete it from the web-site.
Richard Dixon, CFO explained that we would be resubmitting our Procurement Statement to add professional services. Professional Services will now be part of this report.
The committee had no further business, and the meeting was adjourned.
All material will be shared with CCIDA Board members.
Meeting adjourned at 9:55 a.m.
Respectively,
Carol Rasmussen
