Summary
Economic Development Board members told Grant County commissioners their $100,000 annual appropriation mainly covers salaries, utilities and building maintenance and highlighted active projects including a Business Incubator, a proposed brewery development and Main Street storefront improvement grants as the county plans its 2027 budget.
Members of the Grant County Economic Development Board met with the Board of County Commissioners and city officials on Feb. 17 to provide an operational update as the county prepares its 2027 budget. Board members — Cindy Davis, Andy Cole, Paige Kratzer and Charlie Fields — described active projects including a Business Incubator, a proposed brewery development and Main Street storefront improvement grants.
The board explained how the county's annual $100,000 appropriation is primarily used: "salaries, utilities, building maintenance, operations, equipment and administrative needs," according to the update. Commissioners asked for clarity on how those funds are spent as they begin budget planning for 2027; no changes to the current appropriation were recorded at the meeting.
