National Economic Development Week May 7-12
|
|
Celebrating the economic development profession and professional and volunteer economic developers in communities across the nation, the International Economic Development Council (IEDC) reminds us that the Week of May 7-12 is National Economic Development Week.
According to IEDC, economic development is a set of programs and policies that aid in the creation, retention and expansion of jobs, the development of a stable tax base, and the enhancement of wealth in a given economy. In Morgan County, economic developers are found not only as staff and board members with MCEDC but also as citizen volunteers that are involved in economic and redevelopment commissions as well as those engaged in local planning commissions and our city, county and town councils.
As IEDC reserves this week each year to bring attention to the value of economic development policies and those who work the policies to create opportunity and enhance the quality of life for others, MCEDC says “Thank You!” to our many investors and partners that work with us each day to stimulate the growth of wealth and knowledge in Morgan County. This partnership has potential!

Mooresville Proceeds with FloSource Rezoning
At its April meeting, the Mooresville Planning Commission reviewed and favorably recommended a rezoning request that would accommodate the relocation of FloSource from Martinsville to Mooresville.
FloSource is a national leader in the design, fabrication and distribution of value and steam equipment for commercial and industrial users in a variety of sectors. With anticipated displacement from its Martinsville facilities due to the I-69 construction project, FloSource worked with MCEDC to identify property that would permit the company to retain its Morgan County presence.
|
|
Company officials identified property in Flagstaff Business Park in Mooresville that would meet the need for logistical efficiency, and the Town of Mooresville has been supportive of FloSource’s request and the engineering work that supports the project as completed by Banning Engineering (MCEDC Silver Investor).
The Mooresville Town Council will consider FloSource’s rezoning request during the town council’s May 15, 2018 meeting at 6:30 p.m. at the Mooresville Government Center at 4 East Harrison Street in Mooresville.
