The DeWitt County Development Council, or DCDC, is looking back at what it calls a successful 2024.

DCDC Executive Director Curt Homann explains they gave away more money in the form of grants than ever before. He hopes to be able to match that this year. 

Homann takes pride in the projects being accomplished this year - some of which have been in the works for multiple years. He points to the new grocery store in Farmer City as an example of the necessary process. 

While deciding on the biggest accomplishment of the DCDC in 2024 is difficult, Homann believes giving businesses and entrepreneurs the resources to be successful is a part of the job he enjoys the most.
