Concern Among Economic Development Board Members In Huron County

Huron County's Economic Development Board officially marked its second year this past January.

Chair Jim Lynn says many of the board members had hoped there would be more to show for their efforts after two years. He adds that there is now a general feeling of urgency to achieve some of their objectives.

Lynn says many of the board members are successful entrepreneurs and have had some difficulty adjusting to the fact that the public sector doesn't always move at the same speed as the private sector.

Lynn adds the groundwork has been laid, there are opportunities, and now is the time for the Economic Development Board to start taking advantage of them.
