LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Lakeport Economic Development Advisory Committee this week will continue its work to prepare the city's economic development strategic plan.
The meeting will take place from 7:30 to 9 a.m. Wednesday, April 13, at Lakeport City Hall, 225 Park St.
The main item on LEDAC's agenda is the working session on the Lakeport Economic Development Strategic Plan.
As part of preparing that final plan, LEDAC working groups have been reviewing documents including the city's former redevelopment agency five-year implementation plan; the 2016 Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy; Lake County 2030 – A Blueprint for our Future (Lake County/City Area Planning Council); Lake County Economic Development & Marketing Strategic Plan, 2011-2013; and the Downtown Improvement Plan, Phase II.
Chair Wilda Shock said LEDAC members will hold the final discussion on those documents ahead of finalizing the plan.
In other business, there will be an update on the vacant commercial buildings and lands inventory, with an informational presentation on alternative design approaches.
There also will be time for citizen input.
LEDAC advocates for a strong and positive Lakeport business community and acts as a conduit between the city and the community for communicating the goals, activities and progress of Lakeport’s economic and business programs.
Members do not have to be Lakeport residents.
In addition to Shock, the membership includes Vice Chair Christine Hutt, Secretary Rebecca Southwick, and members Bill Eaton, Melissa Fulton, Pam Harpster, Chris King, George Linn, Taira St. John and Panette Talia.
Lakeport City Community Development Director Kevin Ingram and City Manager Margaret Silveira serve as ex-officio committee members.
