Iredell EDC Discusses Recent Project Development And Data Centers At Their Second Development Council
On October 28, Iredell EDC once again convened their Development Council at the Statesville Country Club.
Recently created to provide local developers, contractors, and industry partners with a forum to share insights and exchange ideas, the Development Council serves to strengthen the relationships that solidify the foundation of Iredell County.
Craig Goodson, Director of Economic Development, and Evan Day, Research Analyst, shared a brief overview of development projects in Iredell County and the state of North Carolina before diving into what is becoming an increasingly hot topic locally, Data Centers.
Goodson very carefully detailed the distinct types of data centers as well as the data center projects recently announced in North Carolina and the Charlotte Region. He then turned the conversation over to Ron Smith, City Manager for the City of Statesville, who openly discussed his most recent experience with the Statesville City Council’s approval of the Compass Data Center. Goodson and Smith then fielded questions from the group regarding the approval process and how Iredell EDC contributed to the education process.
While this is the second time Iredell EDC has their Development Council, it is quickly gaining traction with its intended audiences, much like the Industry Leaders Council, which is open to business and industry leaders to freely share the trends and developments that impact their businesses and ability to grow successfully in Iredell County.
Both the Development Council and the Industry Leaders Council are just two of the programs Iredell EDC has established to help promote Iredell County as the best place for business, life, and location.
