Description
Residential recruitment is a critical issue in Decatur-Morgan County. Thousands of jobs are coming to our region in the next several years, and our area needs to be prepared to receive them and have them become part of our community. Young professionals are particularly impacted by the need for affordable housing, which includes upscale “Class A” apartment options. Where does Decatur-Morgan County stand on this issue?
Come hear the status of residential recruitment efforts from members of the Chamber's Residential Recruitment Task Team and hear about the direction the group is traveling. The three-member panel of Victoria McKenzie, Stratton Orr and Miracle Osborne will share with the group the goals of the task team, achievements the group has already accomplished and what is on the horizon.
Just as important, the panel wants to hear from the young professional community on what their needs are, what they are looking for in housing options and what role housing plays in their long-range plans to stay in Decatur-Morgan County.
The series is presented by Ascend Performance Materials, and lunch is sponsored by Kiwanis Club of Decatur.
