The Kerr-Tar Regional Council of Governments is in the process of developing a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) and is requesting your assistance in gaining knowledge about the region and its counties. The CEDS team is conducting an online survey to assess the region’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. The data from this survey will be used to inform policy makers across the region about what is going well, what needs improvement, and to guide focus areas over the next 5 years.
Anyone who lives, works, or has an interest in the Kerr-Tar region is encouraged to respond to the online survey. To respond to the survey, click the link for the appropriate county and complete by August 19, 2022. Please only complete one survey. For more information, contact Michael Kelly, Planning & Economic Development Director at 252-436-2040 or mkelly@kerrtarcog.org.
Additionally, stakeholder meetings will be held throughout the month of July to gather more input to be used for the 2022-2027 CEDS. The schedule for these meetings is as follows:
