Team Levy moves from talking, to planning for county's growth

Amanda Douglas, executive director of the Nature Coast Business Development Council, said Team Levy’s next meeting would be placing people into groups to help determine the growth strategies for the county.

“This is actually something we can do as a plan of action, to take action,” Douglas said at the Sept. 30 Chiefland Rotary Club meeting.

Douglas said the groups would consist of six to eight people playing “scenario games” where maps would be developed that indicate potential growth areas for the county.

“This is something that nobody else in the country is doing,” she said about the program.

Douglas said Team Levy, as part of its desire to develop innovative planning initiatives, is trying to make the county more open to green technologies and businesses.

And she said one of the ways to do that is to market Levy County as a “greenfield” developmental county.  The term “greenfield” refers to land that has not been previously developed—usually rural areas made up of farmland and forests.
