Board to vote on ED coordinator reclassification and budget proposal for city council

The Fulshear Economic Development Corporation (EDC) is moving forward with a significant reclassification of its Economic Development Coordinator position to that of Economic Development Manager. This decision, which has been discussed in previous meetings, was confirmed during the latest session on July 14, 2025.

The city manager's budget proposal includes this reclassification, and there have been no objections from the city council following its presentation on July 1. This indicates strong support for the change, which aims to enhance the leadership and effectiveness of the EDC.

Board members clarified that their approval of the budget proposal will effectively endorse the reclassification. The funds necessary for this transition are included in the budget, ensuring that the move can proceed without further delays.

This reclassification is seen as a vital step in strengthening the EDC's capabilities, allowing for more focused economic development efforts in Fulshear. As the board prepares to vote on the budget, the anticipation is that this change will lead to improved economic strategies and outcomes for the community.
