I will be attending the Annual ERC Board Meeting and Investor/Partner breakfast this morning, and will report on the results later today. The main focus will be on what kind of economic development do we want in the Western County. Other local bloggers will also be attending and will be giving their views on progress in coming up with a economic vision for the community. We need to know where we are going, before we can start our journey to prosperity.
The list of business that are closing continues to grow and the area continues to look shabby with the closed Chevy Dealership, the old Hills Flat Lumber site and empty lot were De Martini had his RV sales. Another indicator of a declining economy is the growing number of signs in our shopping areas advertising space available.
More on local economic development later today.
