Economic Development Subcommittee) on the various activities of the <br /> . subcommittees: <br /> • Marketing Subcommittee <br /> • Demonstration Subcommittee <br /> • Energy Use Subcommittee <br /> Although the EDA, acting as the Energy City Economic Development <br /> Subcommittee, has not taken a real high profile role in this process as <br /> yet, economic development staff has been working closely with the <br /> Marketing Committee to help establish a direction for the overall <br /> Energy City program. Once this groundwork has been established and <br /> implemented, I feel it will provide the positive effect which the EDA is <br /> anticipating from this program. Implementation of the marketing plan <br /> will also signal the start of what is likely to become a higher profile <br /> Economic Development Subcommittee. <br /> It has been somewhat difficult to this point to use Energy City as a <br /> marketing tool because of the lack of a marketing plan. Now that that <br /> plan will soon be implemented it will hopefully help to provide energy <br /> related industrial/business prospects, which is a primary goal of the <br /> EDA through this program. <br /> 8. Marketing Video <br /> The purpose of this agenda item is to provide an opportunity to view <br /> the six minute marketing video which was put together several years <br /> ago to see if there might be the need to update the video at this time. <br /> Staff circulated approximately 25 copies of this video to various <br /> prospects this past year. Some are kept by industrial brokers for <br /> future use and others are returned to the city as requested by staff. <br />
