Mr. Erar stated the enabling resolution needed to be amended to reflect the correct officers and also to increase the membership from five to seven members. He noted a minor technical error had been brought to the City's attention regarding the EDA. The City Council, rather than the EDA, was required to hold a public hearing to increase the membership from five to seven. He stated the City Council was also required to appoint the members of the EDA. Councilmember Jacobson asked why there were nine members of the EDA, including the two non-voting members, when the resolution authorized seven members. The City Attorney replied the City was only allowed seven voting members, and the remainder members were advisory members. He indicated this did not cause any legal issues. Councilmember Orttel requested the wording be changed from non-voting members to Advisors to the EDA. MOTION by Councilmember Orttel, Seconded by Councilmember Trude, to close the Public Hearing.
