When people hear the term âeconomic development,â what often comes to mind is massive projects to entice large-scale business which are so big they change almost instantly the fortunes of a community. In other words, something on the scale of Toyota Motor Manufacturing Kentucky in Georgetown.
Prior to Toyota, Georgetown was, for the most part, a rural farming community along I-75 just north of Lexington. But Toyota changed that community greatly, bringing in an influx of both money and people that was previously unimagined.
Likewise, when people think of tourism development, they often think of Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, or Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, where the economy is totally sustained by tourism and the communityâs businesses center on and rely on that industry.
