Community-based Economic Development Strategy

In the spring of 2021, Town administration brought together a small but powerhouse group of community leaders with differing perspectives to explore a new path for the local economy. By working together, sharing insights and considering the challenges and opportunities facing the community, this core leadership group outlined a community-led approach to economic development. With Council support, a formal advisory committee was struck to provide community input and advice in the development of this new approach, starting with a Community Economic Development Strategy and Tactical Plan.
