A committee member asked the Commerce & Economic Development committee on April 2 to request sample contracts that outline performance expectations between Regional Development Councils (RDCs) and the Department of Economic Development (DED).
Members discussed the need to review contract terms, performance measures, and the last time contracts were updated so the committee can determine whether the RDCs are meeting contractual obligations. The member said the councils operate under contracts (not political supervision) and requested staff provide a sample agreement and relevant dates.
The committee agreed to ask staff to assemble the contracts and report back on whether updates are needed and how to assess compliance.
Next steps: staff will provide a sample RDC-DED contract for committee review and a timeline for when updates occurred.
