Bringing leaders across DeWitt County together to support one another is the aim of a new initiative through the DeWitt County Development Council.

On the WHOW Morning Show Monday, DCDC Executive Director Curt Homann told Regional Radio they want to increase collaboration between municipal leaders, County leaders, and the DCDC to be resources for one another.

Homann emphasizes this will not be just a Clinton and Farmer City-focused group. He wants to have every community represented and hear from them.

According to Homann, the goal is for this to be beneficial to everyone who participates. He also believes it will be good for when leadership goes through a transition, like a couple of communities are about to this month. 

Homann says they will be reaching out to all the leaders of the County to invite them to this. He believes it will be a net benefit for DeWitt County.
