A similar committee may be reconvened . when the EDA updates the Industrial Marketing Plan in 2002. There are currently two vacancies-one on each committee. The role of the Incubator Advisory Committee is to review and critique business incubator prospects and make recommendations to the EDA regarding their joining the business incubator project. In the past the Incubator Advisory Committee consisted of three EDA representatives. It is appropriate at this time to appoint a representative from the EDA. The Finance Committee has also traditionally included three EDA representatives. However, since Dan Tviete's recent appointment to the EDA, the vacant position may also be filled by an at-large community representative. Staff welcomes suggestions by the commission. Staff recommends reappointment of the other current membership of the finance committee and business incubator advisory committee. f.
