          GOING TO CALL A MEETING OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND TOURISM TO ORDER. I HAVE SIX DOCKETS 
          [a. 2025-1777 – MVEDGE RE:     APPROVAL OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN ONEIDA COUNTY AND THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT GROWTH ENTERPRISES CORPORATION, D/B/A MOHAWK VALLEY EDGE, AND TRANSFER OF $50,000.00 TO A 8020 6432.495-660 – OTHER EXPENSE BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT – ATREG (PLANNING)  ]
HERE. THE FIRST ONE IS MOHAWK VALLEY EDGE, DOCKET 1777. SEAN IS HERE. IF YOU WOULD COME UP, SHAUNA, TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THIS DOCKET. SO. WE'RE LOOKING FOR ASSISTANCE TO PUT UNDER CONTRACT A TRACK. IT'S A COMPANY THAT IS EXCLUSIVELY FOCUSED ON SITE SELECTION AND WORKING WITH SEMICONDUCTOR COMPANIES. AS WE ALL KNOW, TRYING TO UNDERSTAND HOW TO GET INTO THE CORPORATE LEVEL OF THESE COMPANIES THAT WE WANT TO ATTRACT. WE NEED TO BE SURE WE HAVE SOMEBODY WHO CAN HELP GIVE US THAT ENTREE. AND THIS COMPANY AT TRACK HAS THE ABILITY TO DO THAT. THEY HELP TO ATTRACT WOLFSPEED HERE. THEY HAVE GOTTEN HAVE GOTTEN US INTO A NUMBER OF OTHER COMPANIES, AND WE DO A MONTHLY UPDATE WITH THEM AS WELL AS MEET WITH THEM SEVERAL TIMES A YEAR. ONE OF THE BIGGEST SHOWS IN THE SEMICONDUCTOR INDUSTRY IS COMING UP SEMICON WEST. THEY WILL BE THERE AS WELL AS US. THEY'LL HELP US MEET UP WITH KEY COMPANIES THAT HAVE AN INTEREST, WHICH IS SOMETHING THAT THEY CONTINUALLY TRACK THAT DO YOU KNOW, LIKE A I'M GOING TO USE I'M GOING TO USE THE EASY ONES INTEL. MICRON DO THEY HAVE PROJECTS THAT THEY WANT TO GO FORWARD. THESE COMPANY PRINCIPALS HAVE THE ABILITY TO KNOW THAT BECAUSE THOSE INDIVIDUALS GO TO THEM AND SAY WHAT'S AVAILABLE. SO THEY BASICALLY HELP NARROW DOWN SITES FOR COMPANIES. WE'RE JUST USING IT IN THE REVERSE TO BE SURE THAT THEY'RE SELLING OUR SITE, WHICH WE HAVE A REMAINING 127 ACRES AT MARCY, TO SOLICIT A ANOTHER USER OR MULTIPLE USERS. 
          SO BEFORE I ASK COMMITTEE FOR QUESTIONS, CLARIFICATION IN THIS, IT'S OVER A TWO YEAR, 2526 CORRECT? CORRECT. AND TYPICALLY IN OUR CONTRACTS SOMETIMES WE SEE WORK STARTED BEFORE A CONTRACTS AWARDED SO TO SPEAK. SO ARE THEY ALREADY ON BOARD AND WORKING. THEY ARE. WE HAVE THEM UNDER CONTRACT. WE WANTED TO BE SURE NOT TO LOSE ANY MOMENTUM. I WORKED WITH THEM TO DEFER ANYTHING THEY DID LAST YEAR IN 24 AND HAVE THEM UNDER CONTRACT TO BEGIN IN 25. SO, AND THAT THE QUESTION I WOULD HAVE IS YOU'RE DUE FOR MAYBE A QUARTERLY UPDATE THROUGH EDGE, I'M ASSUMING MAYBE SEPTEMBER OR SOMETIME. WOULD THERE WORK WHAT THEY HAVE TO DATE BE INCORPORATED IN A REPORT WE'RE GOING TO SEE SOON? WE COULD DO THAT. AND WHAT WE'LL DO IS WE CAN SHOW YOU ONE OF THE REPORTS THAT THEY GIVE US MONTHLY. I MIGHT HAVE TO BLACK OUT A COUPLE THINGS. IF THERE'S SOMETHING THAT THEY HAVE ON THERE UNDER AN NDA. BUT I'M HAPPY TO SHOW YOU WHAT THEY'RE WHAT THEY SHOW US. AND, YOU KNOW, THE KEY THING WITH THEM TOO, IS THEY'RE GIVING US ALL THE INDUSTRY TRENDS. AND THAT'S, YOU KNOW, THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT BECAUSE THE WHOLE SEMICONDUCTOR INDUSTRY IS VERY SECULAR. AND, YOU KNOW, WHEN WE ATTRACTED WOLFSPEED, IT WAS A DOWN CYCLE. 
          SO YOU HAVE THESE COMPANIES NOW LOOKING TO SAY, HOW QUICKLY CAN I GET INTO A FACILITY? WE'VE ALWAYS SHARED WITH THE BOARD WHEN WE FIRST STARTED THIS, YOU CAN HAVE A COMPANY SAY, I WANT TO COME TO YOUR SITE AND YOU HAD FIVE YEARS TO GET IT READY. NOW WHEN THEY SAY THEY WANT TO COME, IT'S DOWN TO 24, 18 MONTHS. WELL, AND I THINK THAT YOU KNOW WITHOUT GETTING YOU MENTIONED WE'LL SPEED A COUPLE TIMES AND QUESTIONS THIS BOARD WILL HAVE I'M SURE WE'LL SEE THAT IN YOUR UPDATE COMING IN ANOTHER MONTH OR SO. YEP. QUESTIONS FROM THE BOARD. ANY QUESTIONS. SEEING NONE. THANK YOU FOR THE PRESENTATION. WE'LL PROCEED TO A VOTE. ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE. 
          OPPOSED? SAY NO. PASSES UNANIMOUSLY. THANK YOU, THANK YOU. NEXT COUPLE HERE WE HAVE

EXISTING STAFF AS WELL AS FINALISTS WHERE WE OFFER THE JOB. WE'VE LOST THEM TO OTHER. EDUCATIONAL ADMINISTRATIVE APPOINTMENTS AND COMPLETELY ON SALARY. I WOULD LOVE TO COME HERE.

EMPIRE STATE DEVELOPMENT GRANT. VERY EXCITING TIMES FOR THE COLLEGE. GIVEN WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT. WE SPOKE I THINK AT THE MAY OR JUNE YOUR BOARD MEETING OF THE TECHNICAL SKILLS HOW IMPORTANT AND THIS THIS PROGRAM I THINK IS GOING TO FILL RIGHT INTO THERE. SO YOU WANT TO TALK BRIEFLY ABOUT THIS GRANT PROGRAM? YEAH, I ACTUALLY JUST SPENT THE DAY IN ROCHESTER AT MONROE COMMUNITY COLLEGE'S DOWNTOWN CAMPUS. IT WAS THE FIRST IN-PERSON CONVENING OF THE ONE NETWORK FOR ADVANCED REGIONAL ADVANCED MANUFACTURING PARTNERSHIPS, THE ONRAMP NETWORK. WE'RE ONE OF FOUR REGIONS SELECTED FOR EVENTUALLY 20 MILLION OPERATING, 20 MILLION CAPITAL FOR REALLY, IT'S GOING TO AMPLIFY OUR FREE FAST TRACK TRAINING IN THE MANUFACTURING SECTOR. AND THE FIRST PHASE IS A $330,000 PLANNING PHASE, WHERE WE'LL BE DOING STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT WITH THE PAGE GROUP. NANCY PETRINI AND HER TEAM HERE, THEY WERE SUCCESSFUL WITH THE RFP. AND THEN BURNING GLASS IS GOING TO GIVE US LABOR MARKET DEMAND. THEY WERE THE SUCCESSFUL APPLICANT IN THE RFP PROCESS FOR MARKET MARKET DEMAND ANALYSIS. AND ANDREW HELPED US GREATLY WITH THIS AND PUTTING THIS TOGETHER AND ASSURING THE STATE THAT WE ARE A GOOD CONTRACTOR, THAT WE ARE WORTHY OF THESE DOLLARS. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? I KNOW WE'RE WE'RE HEADED INTO THE END OF OUR SUMMER, BUT THE BEGINNING OF YOUR FALL HERE THIS MONTH IN ENROLLMENT. YEAH, I BELIEVE YOUR PROJECTIONS WERE FOR A 1% INCREASE IN ENROLLMENT. YEP. AND RIGHT NOW WE'RE A LITTLE AHEAD OF THAT. SUNY RECONNECT IS VERY HELPFUL. RIGHT NOW WE'RE UP CLOSING IN ON 400 REGISTRATIONS OF ADULTS 25 TO 55, REGISTERING FOR CLASSES IN HIGH DEMAND PROGRAMS. SO WE'RE EXCITED. NOT SURE WHAT DOCKETS WILL HIT US IN SEPTEMBER, BUT IF YOU HAVE AN UPDATE OF ENROLLMENT INTO THE FALL IN SEPTEMBER, WE'LL KNOW A LITTLE MORE. WITH IT'S A LITTLE. WE HAVE 32 DIFFERENT START DATES THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, SO COMPARING YEAR OVER YEAR, IT'S A I'M ALWAYS HESITANT TO SAY, OH, ENROLLMENTS.

TO THE FAIR. I'M SURE THEY'VE ALREADY SPENT THE MONEY. RIGHT, STEVE? WE'RE JUST SENDING IT BACK. NO, YOU GOT THE NUMBERS BACKWARDS. YEAH, THAT'S ALL RIGHT. WELL, THE MONEY THE COUNTY ALLOCATES FOR THEM EVERY YEAR, LIKE THE $20,000 GOES TOWARDS INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS THAT THEY MAKE, LIKE PAVING THE WALKWAYS AND WALKWAYS AND WHAT HAVE YOU.
