EDC accepts council-liaison resignation, appoints replacement and elects officers
Summary
The board accepted Mayor Pro Tem Norma Owens resignation as a voting member (she will remain the council liaison), appointed David to the vacancy and elected Justin Ouch as chair, Don as vice chair and David as secretary.
The Lago Vista Economic Development Corporation moved quickly through governance items at the meeting.
Chair Justin Ouch read a resignation letter from Mayor Pro Tem Norma Owen in which she said she would "formally sit down from my position as a voting member of the Economic Development Corporation board effective immediately" and that she would "continue to serve as the appointed city council liaison to the EDC and will remain engaged as an ex officio, non voting member in support of the board's work." The board made a motion to accept the resignation and approved it by voice vote.
The board then moved to appoint David to the open seat and approved that appointment by voice vote.
Board members next elected officers. Justin Ouch volunteered to continue as chair; the board unanimously approved that motion. The vice-chair race drew multiple nominations: an initial nomination for David failed for lack of a second, then a motion to elect Don as vice chair was made, seconded and approved by voice vote. For secretary, a motion to appoint David passed after a second.
No roll-call tallies were recorded in the transcript; the minutes record the outcomes as approved by voice vote. The board discussed assigning staff and subcommittee follow-up work related to the civic-center and golf-course partnership items and placed a proposed general external-partnership subcommittee on the next meeting agenda.
