The City Df Rosemount gained Star City status in 1990. After two
years in the program, and each year after that, the city must go
through a recertification process.
This proc ss includes several steps. One step is to update the
city's one year and five year economic development program.
Staff has provided a draft of the updated plan and we are seeking
your input on that draft. We have enclosed a copy of the draft
for your review. Please take time to do so and offer comments on
Monday evening.
The next (step in this process would be to take the draft document
to the City's Star City Committee and then on the city council
for thei approval.
After th,t the Department of Economic Development from the state
will send down an interview team to meet with the city staff and
the star city committee to review the plan and other documents in
order to consider us for recertification.
