Economic Development Board Building For 2016 In Huron County

Huron County's Economic Development Board is approaching it's first anniversary with a clear role and specific targets.

Board Chair Jim Lynn was pleased with the way the Strategic Economic Development Plan for the county came together this year.

Lynn points to the collaboration that has developed between the county and the partner municipalities as a very positive result of the process, and expects that will continue to pay dividends in the future.

Lynn adds the majority of the board members are business people who seem pleased with the progress they've made in the last three or four months, so he's looking forward to building on that momentum in 2016.
