When it comes to driving and evaluating successful economic outcomes, LDDs need a comprehensive set of analytical tools at their disposal. One piece of that puzzle is GIS; another is gathering, analyzing, and disseminating reliable data. LDDs across Appalachia host a great deal of expertise in solving the same types of problems that you’re encountering at your LDD, and DDAA wants to bring you and your peers together to share that knowledge.

On December 9, 2024, DDAA will be hosting a free peer meeting in Greenville, SC, featuring DDAA member-facilitated roundtable sessions on a variety of topics related to GIS, leveraging data at local development districts, and much more, all geared toward driving and evaluating regional prosperity.

Solving the Local Match Funding Dilemma – Town of Jonesville Streetscape Improvements Project

Union County, South Carolina, was added to the Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) region in 2021. Since that time, the county and its municipalities have spent much time learning about the great opportunities now available to them through ARC. One of the Union County localities, the Town of Jonesville (Jonesville), just completed its first construction project with ARC, namely the Streetscape Improvements Project. As is common in many ARC Distressed Counties, Jonesville had to be creative in funding the local match requirements. A 20% match can often limit a community’s ability to qualify for grant funding, and Jonesville was no exception. This project is a great example of using multiple funding sources to complete a project that would have otherwise not been feasible for a distressed community!
