Normal Demands Transparency from EDC

The Normal Town Council is calling for greater transparency in how its money is being spent for economic development initiatives. The council recently approved about $67,000 in funding for the BN Advantage group. The Economic Development Council is receiving $32,000 of that money for marketing and communication, on top of its usual $100,000 in annual funding. However, the council denied an additional $50,000 that was requested by the EDC. Council members expressed disappointment at the lack of the progress they've seen over the last two years.
