Public Meetings on Economic Development

Future of economic development in Stone County

Table Rock Lake Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with the Stone County Commission, is hosting a series of open meetings to discuss the future of economic development in the county and are asking for residents to participate.

The forums will be conducted by O’Brian & Associates, an economic development firm from Joplin. The purpose of the meetings is to gather additional information from the public in preparation for the completion of an economic development strategic plan for the county.

The first of the four meetings is this evening  (Tuesday, July 20) starting at 5:30 p.m. at New Testament Christian Church located at 21016 Main Street, Reeds Spring.  The second meeting is tomorrow morning at 9:00 at the Crane Public Library on Main Street. 

The economic development strategic planning was to have begun last year but was delayed by the pandemic.  President and CEO of the Table Rock Chamber of Commerce, Sheila Thomas said the goal for the strategic plan is to have both short term and long term goals to spur the economic growth the county needs.
