Amber Overfelt was today's featured guest on KWIXLand's Business Spotlight. Take a listen as she shares valuable insights about economic development efforts in Howard County and the impact of entities like Howard Electric Cooperative on these endeavors. Support for such initiatives is typically heavily weighted towards public bodies, with some contributions from private or semi-private entities.
In Howard County, the Howard County Commission and the City of Fayette, MO, are the public bodies supporting the HCEDC. However, private or semi-private organizations like Howard Electric (mentioned above), Commercial Trust Company, Central Methodist University, Monnig Industries, Addison Labs, Inovatia Laboratories, LLC, and Inovatia AgriTesting Services, LLC, recognize the value in it enough to bridge the funding gap for this crucial program.
Moberly Area Economic Development Corporation is the economic development service provider for the Howard County Economic Development Council.
