Iowa’s next economic development agency could be an authority, the state’s new economic development leader said today.

Director Debi Durham told the Iowa Economic Development Board https://openup.iowa.gov/board/Iowa+Economic+Development+Board/56/ today a bill is being drafted that would create an economic development authority to replace the existing state agency.

Gov. Terry Branstad http://www.governor.iowa.gov/ wants to scrap the existing agency for a public-private partnership that would be more responsive to new and existing businesses that are interested in generating jobs. He’s called the proposed agency the Iowa Partnership for Economic Progress.
