Economic Development Strategic Plan in Process

Comments were received on the draft version of the 2023-2027 Garrett County Economic Development Strategic Plan. The next step is to assimilate and consider the comments into a final plan.

Three key focus areas of the plan are:

  • Workforce Development
  • Affordable Workforce Housing
  • Strengthening the County’s Economic Base

Our team is working diligently to ensure that all comments are reviewed and taken into consideration to build the best plan for the community we serve. We are committed to maintaining transparency throughout the review process, and we will provide regular updates on our progress.

“We appreciate the community’s contributions and input into this plan,” said Steve Kelley, Director of Planning and Community Development. “Our staff has put lots of thought and many hours into this document and we hope to see the fruits abound to all our citizens. The plan should be finalized by the end of this fiscal year.”
