Jr. <br />Core Business Community <br />06/30/2017 <br />Chair Jacobs said the Board will await a recommendation for position 6, the "Core <br />Business Community." <br />Commissioner Dorosin said the list of applicants does not contain any indication of <br />whether any of the applicants would be qualified for the Core Business position. He said this <br />information should be noted. <br />Steve Brantley said this application is not tailored to the Economic Development <br />Advisory Board, and it is a blanket application. <br />Chair Jacobs suggested more clarity be provided for this, including a page outlining <br />positions on the commission, with descriptions of what skills each position requires. He said <br />there is little information listed by applicants regarding interest or skills, and he suggested <br />phone calls to follow up and gather this information. <br />Commissioner Dorosin said if there are particular requirements that need to be <br />represented on these boards, they need to be made clear, and it needs to be clear whether the <br />applicants meet those requirements. <br />Steve Brantley said the policies and by -laws are listed on line for applicants. He said <br />the general County application could be amended to specify categories within advisory boards, <br />and why the applicant is qualified for this. <br />VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br />Commissioner Price asked why Durham Tech is not listed on the green sheet. <br />Steve Brantley said there is no specific reason for this. He said there could be more of <br />a general education position, rather than specific schools. <br />Commissioner Price said she would like to consider the addition of Durham Tech. <br />Chair Jacobs said he has talked with the Manager for more information about this board <br />to be provided to the Board of County Commissioners. He said this is an important board. He <br />suggested that at a future meeting Steve Brantley could walk them through the history of this <br />board, an explanation of the current makeup, and details of current meetings and the way <br />things are being done. <br />f.
