Included on

the site is also information about the Development Authority's successful

year.

In FY 2002

alone, the board and staff leveraged the funding from the Fayette County

Commission to create over 290 new local jobs with an estimated investment

of $31.9 million. With an average salary of $47,500, FCDA spent less than

$800 for every new job created. The organization's greatest impact comes

from services to Existing Industry, entrepreneurs and small business.

Under the leadership

of chairman Randy Hayes, the board of directors set policy, determine

annual goals and serve as liaisons between the business community and

local government.

The volunteer

board leverages their individual talents by networking and building consensus

to facilitate an improved business climate, diversified economic base,

and stable economy that benefits each resident, government and business

in Fayette County.
