Marble Falls EDC board votes to let non-residents serve

MARBLE FALLS – The Economic Development Corp. is opening board membership to appointees who live no more than 10 miles outside the city limits.

In a case of the second time’s the charm, the board Aug. 3 voted 4-2 to amend EDC bylaws to allow non-residents to serve.

“Let’s open it up as wide as we can,” said EDC board member George “Butch” Kemper.

The change is subject to City Council approval, officials said.
