INVESTING IN OUR COMMUNITIES
In our concentrated effort to support the needs of our region, the RREDC has formed committees composed of community leaders and development advocates. Meeting semi-monthly, our committees continuously work toward regional economic goals.
Business Retention/Expansion and Attraction/Recruitment Committee
The committee serves as a resource for local businesses interested in expanding their operations, and supports entrepreneurism and innovation within our local communities. The committee also works to identify target businesses and industries for recruitment efforts and serves as a first point of contact for companies interested in locating or expanding within the region.
