Dev. Advisory board <br /> and nominated Paige Zinn for the BOCC to fill an opening. The BOCC subsequently <br /> made that desired appointment for our vacant "Core Business" advisory board sector. <br /> Currently, my advisory board has not reviewed applicants, nor made a recommendation <br /> of potential applicants. What I have done thus far is identify and recruit ideal <br /> replacement candidates based on our advisory board's rather unique composition of <br /> members filling a specialty group, such as Core Business, Agriculture, Hotel/Tourism, <br /> Small Business, Entrepreneur, Non-Profits, etc. Among the many current applicants, <br /> most do not directly satisfy the two open categories for agriculture and hotel/tourism <br /> sectors which are currently vacant. For that reason, I have sought out specific <br /> individuals who I feel can assist in our advisory boards efforts, and who satisfy the <br /> agriculture (James Watts) and hotel (Nitin Khanna) sectors. <br /> From: Thom Freeman <br /> Sent: Tuesday, August 25, 2015 12:36 PM <br /> To: Steve Brantley; Tina Love <br /> Cc: Donna Baker <br /> Subject: FW: Orange County Economic Development's Advisory Board - <br /> recommendation for Ms. Paige Zinn r to fill opening <br /> Hi Steve and Tina, <br /> If you would send me an email consistent with the one you sent back in December,with <br /> the names of the two preferred candidates, I will add them to your current <br /> appointments going up in September. <br /> Thanks, <br /> Thom <br /> From: Donna Baker <br /> Sent: Saturday, December 13, 2014 8:05 AM <br /> 4 <br />
