The DeWitt County Development Council will be spending the foreseeable future getting in front of DeWitt County stakeholders and finding out what is important to them and how DCDC can better serve them.

DCDC Board President David Torbert explains they want to get in front of leadership for the County, Clinton, and Farmer City in hopes of getting a better idea of what DCDC can do to better serve them.

According to Torbert, the relationship with Clinton, Farmer City, and DeWitt County are vital to DCDC. He believes once they hear from those entities, DCDC can narrow its focus.

Approaching Clinton, Farmer City, and DeWitt County about funding DCDC again is a possible talking point. Torbert indicates the more funding they have, the more they could do to serve the various partners in DeWitt County.

DCDC recently announced its search for a new Executive Director. He is hopeful getting that position filled will jumpstart some of the things they have planned for the remainder of 2020 and beyond.
