Hello, please let me introduce myself. I am Jeff Berner. Owner of Professional Physical Therapy 1316 S.
Ridgewood. I expressed an intrest to Tracy Barlow regarding developing eootourism program in Edgewater. He
said it was discussed and said it made the most sense to keep ecotourism within the EDB. Tracy suggested I go
to the city website and download the application. However 1 do not see a link specificly for the EDB under main
menu/deparhnent /economic development. Is the job application Tracy is referring to the city job application? I
am sorry I am new to the workings of city government.
