The grant was awarded on Aug. 8, 2019. The EDA describes the grant as follows:
"This EDA investment supports Milam County with establishing a countywide economic development strategic plan, to use as a roadmap to economic diversification that will allow the county to rebound from the closing of a local coal mine that brought significant job losses to the region. Once completed, the plan will allow the county to complete an asset mapping process and develop a regional marketing strategy that will help to increase regional capacity to work with industries targeted in their business recruitment and expansion efforts, which will help attract private investments, boost businesses and grow jobs throughout the region."
