Help Shape Loudoun’s Economic Future as a Member of the Economic Development Advisory Commission (EDAC) – Apply now!
Loudoun County’s economy is thriving, and local leaders are needed to continue building a diverse and vibrant business environment.
Loudoun County is seeking interested candidates to apply to the Economic Development Advisory Commission (EDAC), a leadership body created to advise the Board of Supervisors on important policies impacting the economy of the county. The mission of EDAC is to promote the long-term economic growth and development of Loudoun County in a way that is economically sustainable and results in the expansion of its commercial and industrial tax base. EDAC achieves its mission by working in partnership with its assigned department – Economic Development Department – on projects assigned by the Board as well as through the development of a work plan that supports the Board’s vision and the business development and marketing goals of the department.
Members of the Loudoun business community who are interested in volunteering their time and expertise to promote the economic growth of the county should submit an application online by close of business on Wednesday, August 28, 2024. Applications submitted after this date may not be eligible for a recommendation to the Board of Supervisors from EDAC leadership.
“Loudoun County is an international economic success story, thanks in part to the insights of our advisory boards, which inform the leadership of the Board of Supervisors. We look to EDAC to work with staff and elected officials to ensure a diverse and growing economy,” Loudoun Economic Development Executive Director Buddy Rizer said. “New EDAC members, with diverse backgrounds and fresh perspectives, will play an influential role in achieving our ambitious goals.”
Commission members may serve two three-year terms, meeting six times per year, every other month starting in January, and may serve on a working committee. The meetings are free and open to the public; interested parties can check the county calendar for upcoming meeting dates, times, locations, and agendas.
EDAC leadership will review applicants and recommend nominees to the Board of Supervisors for appointment by the end of the year. Terms begin January 1st followed by an orientation and an EDAC meeting in the same month. The commission’s members, bylaws, agendas and other documents are available at biz.loudoun.gov.
