Economic Development Subcommittee on Education

The former Economic Development Subcommittee on Education worked to uphold the Economic Development Committee’s mission to build prosperity through job creation and business and trade opportunities.

District H Council Member Karla Cisneros served as the subcommittee’s chairwoman. She is now chair of the Childhood and Youth Committee, which was created in January 2020 to address issues related to the quality of life for children and our youth between the ages of 0-24.
