B. Economic Development Strategy: The EDC welcomed new commissioner Gary Moffat to the
EDC. Mr. Moffat gave a brief background on his career and business here in Auburn (Carpe
Vino). Mr. Moffat shared several economic development ideas that he had researched with
multiple cities. He suggested that the City look into possibly having a vacant commercial
property search tool on the City’s website.
There was also discussion regarding the development of the EDC Strategic Plan. It was
agreed upon that the commission should implement a “divide and conquer” approach toward
getting the plan finished. There was also a suggestion to getting a Dropbox established to
share files regarding the strategic plan. The City Mgr was tasked to get a legal opinion to see
that if there was not a quorum at a future meeting, the commissioners in attendance could still
work on the strategic plan document.
