Pt<-Mr17S Pr,•nAf ;A <br />The Board reviewed a summary report from the March 1 St Economic Growth Summit. County <br />Manager John Crumpton stated that Commissioners held an Economic Summit as part of their <br />Strategic Planning process on March 1S at the McSwain Education Center. A report, provided by Dan <br />Parks and Ted Abernathy ( SBTDC), highlighted the survey results from the community that was <br />conducted prior to the Summit. The report also covers the key issues covered at the Summit and <br />comments received during the meeting. Mr. Crumpton stated there was still a "next step" to go through <br />before the Plan can be finalized. Currently $19,875 has been paid out to SBTDC with another $4,750 <br />invoice pending. It could cost an additional $5,000 - $10,000 to complete the Plan and have metrics <br />developed. Commissioner Womack stated he wanted to continue with the Plan but the Board needed <br />to put a cap on the amount to be spent to finalize everything. The Board agreed they would like to see a <br />finalized Plan by the end of the year. Commissioner Dalrymple stated she would like to see the Plan <br />finalized by August. After further discussion, Commissioner Womack moved that the County Manager <br />negotiate with SBTDC to complete the Strategic Plan, not to exceed $50,000, and to obtain how the <br />number of hours worked, hourly rate and general outline of the project will be used in the Plan.
