Please help us welcome Kathy Kieran, the new Community and Economic Development Planner, who will begin work Monday, May 17. Not only does Kathy bring considerable skill and talent to the position, but the position itself is expanding to full-time to take on the exciting challenges laid out at the Economic Development District Board Retreat in March.
While Kathy will spend quite a bit of her early time on the job learning about the region and its communities, she will also jump into current projects, including:
--evaluation of potential data sources for use in lead-response, grantsmanship, and other projects;
--application for funding to seed a Revolving Loan Fund;
--developing an inventory of resources for the region's small businesses; and
--maintaining and expanding the Economic Development Inventory of the region.
Kathy's background, which includes extensive communications, research, and workforce development work in addition to business operations, ensures that she will hit the ground running.
