At its Aug. 6 meeting the Essex Economic Development Commission reorganized its leadership, nominating Irene Renner as chair and Ann Miller as vice chair; members also confirmed a clerk volunteer and corrected past minutes.

The Essex Economic Development Commission voted to reorganize its officers at its Aug. 6 meeting, approving nominations for chair, vice chair and a clerk.

Tammy Gotchel, the staff representative for the EDC, called the meeting to order and recorded the nominations. "I nominate Irene Renner as chair," said a committee member during the reorganization discussion. Members said "aye," and the motion was ratified by voice vote. The commission then nominated Ann Miller for vice chair and accepted a volunteer to serve as clerk.

The reorganization followed routine procedural business during which the commission also reviewed and corrected minutes from its June meetings. The motion to approve the June 4 minutes was carried by voice vote; the transcript records "Motion carries 4 0." Tammy Gotchel noted that meeting recordings and the Zoom transcript will be forwarded to the clerk for posting.

No formal policy changes accompanied the reorganization; the chair and vice chair roles were described as participants in existing outreach and select-board briefing practices. The commission adjourned after routine closing motions.
