Title

Consider a resolution authorizing the President to execute an agreement with the Round Rock Chamber of Commerce, Inc. for the creation of an economic development strategic plan.

Body

A top Council priority from this year’s strategic planning retreat is to update the Economic Development Strategic Plan and Action Plan.  As the City’s economic development partner, the Chamber developed and circulated a request for proposals.  The submissions were evaluated, finalists interviewed, and two leading firms selected.  This agreement will provide the Chamber with the funding needed for contract.  City staff will continue to be closely involved with the Chamber through out the plan development process.

Cost: $185,000
