Kane County will see many economic initiatives come to fruition or continue to advance in 2023, Kane County Board Chair Corinne Pierog said.
Its members will be professionals from a variety of fields, such as factory and business owners, civic leaders, and members of the tourism industry, she said."We will start small and define industries," Pierog said."What are critically in need? What are well-supported in Kane County?" A similar partnership is being developed between Cook and the collar counties with an eye toward keeping businesses in the region rather than see them leave for neighboring states like Wisconsin and Indiana.Longmeadow Parkway As the Longmeadow Parkway on the county's north side nears completion, the next step is to pay off the debt that helped fund it, Pierog said.
