EDC plans media outreach on three economic revitalization zones; aims for late-summer coverage
Summary
Committee members agreed to pursue press coverage in August–September about Pembroke's three economic revitalization zones and to provide materials to a journalist at The Monitor; one member offered to supply a PDF flyer and talking points.
Committee members discussed promotion and outreach for Pembroke's economic revitalization zones and agreed to pursue local media coverage aimed at late summer. Chair (S2) asked whether a local reporter would be interested in doing a story on the zones and S6 offered to provide a PDF flyer with talking points. One member suggested contacting Rachel Wachman at The Monitor for coverage. "So should we reach out to her and ask her if she would be interested in doing a story on Pembroke's economic revitalization zones?" the Chair asked. (SEG 1844-1847)
Members agreed to prepare materials and approach the reporter so a story could run in August or September; S6 said they could pass along a PDF of the flyer for use in the piece. The outreach aims to explain what the zones mean and the benefits to businesses, since some owners may not realize the program's incentives.
