At the White House Economic Development Council meeting, members authorized the EDC director to participate in Leadership Tyler (referred to in meeting materials as Leadership Tyler/Dallas 100 or Catalyst 100) for the 2025–26 year, with a program fee of $225.
Susan (staff member) told the council the cost for the program is $225. A council member moved to authorize the director’s participation; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote with members responding “Aye.”
The nut graf: the authorization permits the EDC director to attend a leadership and networking program that staff described as providing local and regional panels and networking opportunities. Council members described the program as valuable for building networks and for the director’s professional development.
In discussion, one council member said the program typically includes four formal meetings and smaller group meetings between larger sessions; another member described past participation and spoke in favor of the expense as a reasonable professional-development investment. The council did not attach additional budget or reporting requirements to the authorization in the recorded discussion.
The council’s action was limited to approving the director’s participation and the $225 fee; no other policy changes or additional funding were committed at the meeting. Staff said they would secure payment and registration as needed.
