Top state economic development officials take time to visit Stephens County.
Georgia Department of Economic Development Commissioner Chris Carr and his staff spent Wednesday traveling through the county, meeting with local officials.
Carr said the goal of the trip, which included other stops throughout Georgia, is for his team to build and establish relationships with local officials.
“Economic development, like politics, is, was, and always will be a people business and it is important to get in front of people to hear what is going on and to talk about the resources and the expertise that we can potentially bring to bear and partner with our communities,” said Carr.
