DuPage County Economic Development Committee Meeting, Tuesday 10/20/26

At the October 20, 2026, DuPage County Economic Development Committee meeting, members approved the September minutes and passed a recommendation to approve contract purchase order EDP3-26 with Roxy Capital LLC, doing business as 160 Driving Academy, for CDL training. No contract amount was stated in the transcript. The committee also received a presentation from the DuPage Convention and Visitors Bureau and Sports Commission on tourism performance, including reported 2025 county tourism revenue of $3.4 billion and local tax receipts of $106.2 million.

The presentation covered event-related hotel demand and a transportation grant supporting hotel and visitor transportation; approximately $27,000 was referenced in connection with the grant. The bureau previewed possible future requests for funding, including bid fees to attract tournaments and other events, but no funding decision or vote on those requests was recorded. Members also asked that forthcoming President’s Cup results be shared with the full county board.
