Doug Wehrman addressed those present to keep in mind that discussions in Executive Session need to be kept in strictest confidence. To violate the Texas Open Meetings Act is considered a Class B Misdemeanor. Doug Wehrman spoke on the Team Paris visit to Austin. The Team made a huge impact in Austin. Paris has never done anything like this in the past. We need to stay on the State level's "radar" for our upcoming projects and our Business Plan Initiatives. He emphasized these type relationship building visits need to happen two to three times a year. He was very proud to be a part of the "team". 44 PEDC Board Meeting Minutes March 6, 2012 Richard Seline stated that the Wednesday meeting in Austin included the Matrix Group from the Governor's Office Economic Development Division. They are the first point of contact, on the State level, for new prospects (industry) looking to come to Texas. Carl Cecil, President, Liberty National Bank told those present that Steve Gilbert did an excellent job with his prepared presentations to the various groups. Re-connecting with Gary Farmer, to hear that they participate in 20 Economic Development trips annually to meet with prospects was an eye opener. Paris EDC needs to continue to budget funds to cover expenses for this type of trip four or five times a year. We have no local representation outside this county. Need to make contacts ourselves to promote what Paris, Texas has to offer. Stan McKee, Oncor Electric Delivery told those present that he participated in the California Trade Mission and the Austin Trip. He confirmed that relationship building is key to getting new industry to come to Paris, Texas. He added that Laurie O'Neal as an ally from the Governor's Office played a huge part in both trips. Dave Osborne, FlowServe told those present that he made the Austin Trip with a different Agenda in mind, He wanted to make the lawmakers aware that almost all electives are squeezed out at the high school level, leaving no room for students to participate in technology training for industry. Currently, the high school campuses are not equipped for electro-mechanical training, but Paris Jr. Co(lege is. We need a new push, at the State level, for dual credits at the high school level for this type of training like they currently do for Cosmetology at Paris High School. He was very impressed with what Texas Manufacturing Assistance Center (TMAC) at UT Arlington has to offer this initiative along with lobbying abilities through the Texas Association of Manufacturers. There is a great deal of manufacturing in Texas. If Texas was considered a country by itself, it would be the 5`h largest Manufacturer in the world. Mark Lacek, Paris Milling and Grain told those present that he was impressed to be a part of the group. Richard Seline commented that three House Committees have been charged to have a conversation between workforce and K-12 Leadership. What does Paris Jr. College need? (Funding versus Grant Process). Pam Anglin told those present that the Co-op students will have the opportunity to attend the electro-mechanical program, just need funding source to pay students minimum wage while they attend, in addition to tuition. Holland Harper told those present that we need to lay a foundation with cross section of the community and keep building relationships along with a tactical plan for progress. Update bv Richev Haves of Retail Attractions. Rickey Hayes told those present that his company was in the process of updating the retail data for 2011. He continues to target retailers missing in the community to help stop the sales tax leakage currently going to Sherman and Dallas areas. There continues to be plenty of opportunities for Paris, just need cooperation of land owners, city council, etc. There is a real need for a Matrix Team to cross between government, private sector and Paris EDC.
