New Chair of Planning Commission

A huge Congratulations to JODI KURTZ (pictured) who was elected by her peers on Planning Commission to be the PLANNING COMMISSION CHAIR FOR 2022. Jodi was the Chair of the Apple Valley Chamber in 2014.

Planning Commission is a 7-member citizen advisory board making City Council recommendations for land use issues, building specs and proposals, permits, zoning, signage, etc.

In addition, earlier this year Jodi was also given the honor of being named to the Apple Valley Economic Development Agency (EDA) to represent businesses. The EDA is comprised of City Council and two business representatives to oversee business developers, public agencies, non-profit partners, business addition, retention efforts and expansion, City planning, development incentives (Tax Increment Financing) and other land uses. Ken Johnson who oversees our Chamber’s Local Issues Committee is also on The EDA.

Jodi who has been the Store Manager for Warners’ Stellian in Apple Valley for 27 years brings an informed business perspective to the City Council on behalf of your business. Congratulations again Jodi and to the City.
