During the monthly meeting of the Bradley County Economic Development Commission's board of directors, the members were informed that the organization has just over $136,0000.00 of cash available to use for industrial and business recruitment. The organization is paid $5000.00 per month by the City of Warren to operate.
After approving the financial report and the minutes of the previous meeting, the board voted to purchase a membership in the Arkansas Chamber of Commerce Executives organization and the Arkansas Economic Developers organization. The cost is $250.00 per year, up $100.00 from the past year. The board had previously approved $150.00, but the item was brought up again after it was determined that the membership had increased.
In other business the board voted to lease purchase a new copy machine for $76.50 per month pulse charges based on usage. Then an update was presented on efforts to hire an executive director. BCEDC Chairman John Lipton indicated interviews are pending.
A vote then confirmed the following as new board members to serve a term on on the board:
Dr. Bob Smalling
Sam St John
Randy Rauls
John Stone
Keith Chambers
