Strategic planning meetings at EPD this week reason EPD business office closed until noon this morning

Here is the reason the business office of EPD was closed this morning.

EPD has been holding strategic planning meetings this week.  These meetings were held for all department personnel to plan for the next 5 years.  During the meetings, an assessment of the department was given, work was done on updating EPD's mission statement, and possible goals outlined for the future.  The next step will be to work with the community and elected officials to gather their input.
