Airport Economic Development Advisory Board

Town Administrator August 28, 2020

Airport and Economic Development Advisory Board
The Town of Erie wants to promote economic development that is beneficial to the Town. The Erie Airport is a Town asset that already has a significant economic impact. According to the 2020 Colorado Aviation Economic Impact Study (CEIS), the Erie Airport supports 214 jobs and almost $36 million in business revenue. To help the Erie Airport achieve an even greater impact, the Board of Trustees is establishing the AED Advisory Board to advise the Board of Trustees and promote economic activity at the Erie Airport. We are seeking applications for volunteers to serve on this 7-member Advisory Board, especially those with experience in aviation and/or economic development. Applications are due Wednesday, September 16, 2020. For more information email contactus@erieco.gov, and to apply visit this link.

Access the meeting from the Town of Erie Event Calendar or Agenda Center. The webinar meeting links will be posted no later than 15 minutes prior to meeting.

Economic Recovery - Boulder County

To understand the impacts of COVID-19 on our regional economy and specific industries, Boulder County chambers and economic development agencies are convening a series of inclusive and comprehensive input sessions throughout Boulder County. The purpose of these sessions is to gather input from businesses and industries to better understand the economic situation. Your input will provide crucial data as we work with regional partners to develop and implement economic recovery plans for Boulder County. The first of many sessions is geared towards the restaurant industry. Join the conversation on September 1 at 2 p.m. at this link. For more information contact the Boulder Chamber.
