Growing Our Communities

We recorded today’s episode via Zoom with Felicia Ainsa, Director of Economic Development to learn about how this position will benefit local communities within REC’s service territory.

Felicia explained what her goals are in this new position, how she will work with local businesses as well as new businesses to the area, and be a resource to localities as they grow their industry & infrastructure.
