Council Commits To Hiring An Economic Development Specialist

Common Council is committing to hiring an economic development specialist with money already in the budget and not with new money.
Councillor Peter McGuire says when you're investing 8 to 10 million dollars into economic development, he's confident dollars can be found to fund the position.
He says other cities have a team of resources and adds he does not think the position needs to be funded with new dollars.
The position is being created as per recommendations from a mayoral task force.
