EVEC final report

The Edgemont Village Exploratory Committee (EVEC) will deliver its final report tonight at a meeting at 8 p.m. at the high school. I'll give a brief overview of the EVEC process before the substance of the presentation--reports from the economics committee and the governance committee.

The white paper giving EVEC's findings will be available tonight at the meeting in hard copy (for the first 250 people, anyway). It should be available in pdf form through a link from the EVEC home page. (Unfortunately, I am unable to open the pdf file on my computer; not sure why. It's working fine now.)

The committee has done admirable work both in modeling the economics of a potential Edgemont village and in answering many of the legal questions inherent in becoming a village. Kudos to those who were active on those two committees.

The EVEC white paper stops short of making a recommendation as to whether or not to proceed towards becoming a village. It does however give a solid foundation of analysis of the ecomomic and governance implications of becoming a village.
