6 issues in business jobs with medium priority
Tahoe Business Walks program
The Tahoe Prosperity Center was scheduled to brief the committee on upcoming Tahoe Business Walks, an effort to engage businesses in the Tahoe basin area of the county. The program's goals and the county's potential role remain unclear without a meeting record.
Signature Projects concept
Committee Chair Carl Ribaudo was scheduled to introduce a "Signature Projects" concept, apparently a framework for identifying or prioritizing marquee economic development efforts. Details were not available because no meeting record was provided.
Film permit program expansion and restructuring
Film activity is growing in the county, and the Board nearly doubled the film officer's budget to $301,500 while asking staff to overhaul fees and funding to match industry standards.
SEED Committee membership vacancies
The SEED Committee is short two members, which leaves it at three voting members for now. Staff walked through the application process and members brainstormed what industries and people they want at the table.
GSEC Membership Funding
The SEED Committee recommends the county hold off on funding a Golden State Economic Consortium membership until it has better business sites to market. This affects how the county pursues outside investment and job growth.
Red Hawk Casino Gaming Pavilion agreement
The county and the Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians signed an intergovernmental agreement covering the Gaming Pavilion Project at Red Hawk Casino.
