The Gray Community Economic Development Committee is looking forward to an exciting 2010. The renovation of the Pennell building into new Town Offices is scheduled to be complete by July of this year. The improvements to our landscape with Project Canopy and the revitalization of the Clark Block area are projects well under way and supported by the CEDC. We have many goals for 2010. On an ongoing basis, we continue to improve the website with more enhancements which will encourage community involvement and investigate ways to make doing business with Gray simpler and cost effective. We will assist the Town Leaders as they work to improve and expand economic development in other parts
of Gray as well as network with our neighbors in New Gloucester as they work on similar projects. We look forward to working with the Planning Office, Town Council and the community to help propel Gray into a positive cycle of growth. |
