For Immediate Release


Contact: Brinker Harding

Omaha, NE (March 2, 2009) – Hal Daub, in response to Jim Suttle’s announced plan for new
jobs and prosperity, applauded his competitor for calling for the re-establishment of the position
of economic development director within the Mayor’s office. Daub, who helped to develop the
economic development director’s position while serving as mayor, also announced the same
idea on February 9, 2009 when his plan for economic development and growth was introduced.

When Hal Daub announced his plan for economic development and growth it focused on
realistic and achievable programs to grow the economy, create new jobs and foster
opportunities for young workers to stay in Omaha. Some of Daub’s plans included four
business parks located in Omaha in four quadrants; streamlining permitting and Tax Increment
Financing procedures; and make Omaha cleaner and more attractive through efforts of Omaha
By Design, recycling and sustainable designs for construction projects.
