The Cuming County Economic Development Board held a meeting last night in Beemer.
Rose Jasperson reported that the Board received a $750 grant from Operation Round-up to purchase a laptop for the Director.
The Board also submitted a grant application to FHLB for $25,000 to provide operating capital for Economic Development in the County. Those grants will be announced in June.
The Board adopted By-Laws recommended by Jon Bailey and approved by the County Attorney.
Five applicants for the Director position were interviewed. The interview committee presented their recommendations. It was decided to bring in the top candidate to meet the full board and take a tour of Cuming County.
Bancroft will need to have a committee to make arrangements for a half-day visit to Bancroft. More information about a date and time will be available once the visit is confirmed.
