Re: EDC Board Transition
Dear Dan and Steve:
I am writing to let you know that on Thursday, February 19th, the EDC board voted to reduce its size
from approximately 23 members to 17. The board composition is defined in new by-laws agreed upon
but awaiting final review by our counsel and then a vote by our members.The agreed board
composition is attached along with the relevant explanation in the by-laws.
It is expected that the City of Port Angeles is a member of the EDC in good standing and that its
representative be either a key staff or council member. Ideally,your private sector appointment would
be someone with exceptional business development experience who is already a member of the EDC.
It is our hope to set the new board in place by 19 March, and no later than April 16 should there be a
technical delay. We expect that your representatives would be appointed annually by December 31.
Yours sincerely,
Ken Hays
President
Clallam County Economic Development Council
