7/29/14 - The Howell City Council approved its annual partnership contribution toward county-wide economic development efforts aimed at fostering business growth. The Economic Development Council of Livingston County partnered with Ann Arbor SPARK to provide economic development services. A number of local municipalities contribute financially toward that through individual contracts with the Economic Development Council of Livingston County. The City of Howell signed a three year agreement and the $6,000 invoice approved Monday night covers the remainder of that commitment. Members didnât get into any particulars as it was noted that the three-year contract will be up for discussion in November. EDC officials have said the regional cooperation developed with Ann Arbor SPARK has put Livingston County back on the map and the partnership aligns well with regional initiatives launched across the state.
