At its regular December session, council adopted the report prepared by Gary Davidson, planning and de- velopment director which suggests the county consider three alterna- tives to a separate department: Discussion with all municipali- ties to explain the county's present approach to economic development . and to receive suggestions for im- provements. Development of a commitment to local responsiveness at the county level. A county review of its approach to the economic development func- tion, making any necessary changes to ensure responsiveness to local and county concerns. The report stems from a sugges- tion made to council earlier this summer by a committee of mayors from the county's five towns. The mayors favored an aggressive sell- ing approach to economic develop- ment and recommended that the county separate its planning and de- velopment functions. The department is currently plac- ing emphasis on local economic de- velopment committees and pursuing the idea of establishing joint com- munity economic development, but it cannot do it for them, the report states. According to the report, the coun- ty's role would be to assist in the organization of the community eco- nomic development units, providing back-up staff resources, and provid- ing funds and general assistance with county promotion and infor- mation.
