No Applications for Worth County Economic Developer

The Worth County Progress Organization received no applications for Economic Developer last month. They are advertising for the position again. The county has had high turnover at the position, going through four in the span of a few years. Recently, Tyler Steele resigned to take a construction job at Northwest Missouri State.

The Progress Organization has spearheaded millions of dollars of economic development projects for the last 15 years including the Dollar Store, helping local communities with forming strategic plans, the streetscaping project for Grant City, technical assistance with writing grants, and turning the county into an Enhanced Enterprise Zone. The Progress Organization is also seeking board members. If interested in the Economic Developer's position or in serving as a board member, contact Amber Monticue, Chevy Davidson, Tyler Steele, Bob Hull, Roberta Owens, or Mary Seat.
