Is Louisville overdue for a different approach to economic development?
We chat about that on this week's episode of the Access Louisville podcast. Specifically, we discuss Mayor Craig Greenberg's recently unveiled plan for a public-private-partnership aimed at economic development, which takes the form of a new nonprofit group that is to include many business and nonprofit leaders at the helm. (We also chat about how the last few months have unfolded for Mayor Greenberg, including turbulent weeks at the Louisville Metro Police Department of late.)
On the topic of economic development, we make some comparisons between the strategies of Louisville and Southern Indiana.
Reporter Piper Hansen recently spoke with Lance Allison, the new president and CEO of One Southern Indiana, to gain some insights on that. One Southern Indiana is the economic development agency and chamber of commerce for Clark and Floyd counties. She also recently sat down and discussed economic development with Wendy Dant Chesser, chief director of corporate strategy and external affairs for the River Ridge Development Authority.
On the topic of Southern Indiana, we also chat about the mixed use Shadow Lake development in Charlestown; as well as plans to turn Downtown Jeffersonville into one of the area's premier entertainment districts.
