Legal Documents for County Economic Development Corporations

Hi folks-

We are at the very early stages of considering forming a County Economic Development Corp but may have the opportunity to move the process along quickly if some funding comes through. If you have participated in the formation of an EDC and are willing to share your startup budget as well as any early incorporation documents I would greatly appreciate it! I've been asked to prepare a startup budget for a meeting on Wednesday so I have a short timeline. Thanks for your help.

Best- Laura Brown

Places and Signage Request from Jim Resick

Colleagues,

I am considering submitting a JCEP workshop proposal, tentatively entitled “A Lighter Look at Wisconsin Place Names & Signage”. Would you have some pictures of humorous (even semi-humorous) signage and maybe some take-off’s on your local place names to share with me? This project will not happen without your support. I will certainly list the names of contributors in the ‘credits’ slide.

In this time of human tragedy, global warming, tight budgets, high unemployment and other sorrows, I hope we can respond seriously to the world’s needs but still keep a sense of humor. Appropriate humor can help us keep a sense of balance in our lives, in my opinion.

Thanks, and have a good weekend.

Jim
