Columbia-Adair Economic Development Authority Awarded $397,750 In KPDI Round 2 Funding
It is always a privilege to travel to Frankfort on the last Thursday of the month when the Kentucky Economic Development Finance Authority (KEDFA) meets. The Columbia-Adair County Economic Development Authority’s presence there means something good is about to happen in Adair County! Today, Larry Walker – chairman of the EDA board, Richard Phelps – board member, and I attended the June KEDFA meeting where the EDA was approved for Kentucky Product Development Initiative (KPDI) Round 2 funding in the amount of $397,750. While the EDA doesn’t have to be present to receive the approval or speak about the scope of the project, we believe it is important for Adair County to be present in Frankfort as much as possible, building relationships and reminding the Cabinet that we are still working hard to attract good-paying jobs. This trip also gave us a chance to personally thank the KEDFA Board, Cabinet for Economic Development staff, and our project managers for their support and encouragement throughout the grant process.
