State of the Cities to be held at Riverwood Inn.
The Wright
County Economic Development Partners hip will hold its second
State of The Cities event at the Riverwood Conference Center
on February 15th from 11:30 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. Because
there are 16 cities in Wright County , not all of the cities
could make a presentation at one luncheon event. The cities
that will present at the Riverwood event include Albertville
, Hanover , Monticello , Otsego, and St. Michael. The other
cities had an opportunity to make presentations at an event
in November 2005; this is the second part of the “State
of the Cities ” event.
All Wright
County business people and those interested in development
in Wright County are invited. There will be lunch and the
registration fee is $25 for members and $40 for non-members.
Participants are encouraged to register early and there
will be a prize raffled for those who pre-register.
The
Partnership exists to enhance the business climate of Wright
County and help create more jobs in Wright County . The
strategies the Partnership uses to achieve its mission include
being an information resource and finding technical assistance;
aiding business development through Business Retention &
Expansion visits, providing financing resources, and providing
business information and training through seminars and workshops.
Also, the Partnership markets Wright County to business
site locators, and maintains an excellent website, which
includes a listing of commercial and industrial property
available in Wright County (see www.wrightpartnership.org
). The Partnership also assists with Workforce Development
and has gathered economic statistical information, which
is available on its website.
