EDA staff to seek approval to attend retail trade show; cost details to be presented later
Summary
James Houchins told the board a retail trade show will take place in the coming months and requested Authority approval to attend; he said he will return with details including the cost to attend, which were not specified at the Jan. 5 meeting.
Economic Development & Tourism Director James Houchins told the Authority on Jan. 5 that a retail trade show is scheduled within the next few months and that he would seek the board’s approval to attend.
Houchins said he will present more information at a later meeting, including the cost to attend; the minutes record the request but do not list dates, location of the trade show, or estimated expenses. The board did not vote on attendance at the Jan. 5 special called meeting.
The request signals staff interest in business-development outreach, but the minutes show no budget authorization or travel approval at this meeting.
