Economic Development Commission Holds AGM

The Lake of the Woods Economic Development Commission says the bricks and mortar are in place in order for Kenora's economy to thrive.

The commission held its annual general meeting yesterday in the new Discovery Center on Cameron Bay.

Dennis Wallace is chair of the commission and says they have seen a lot of interest from business to set up shop in Kenora.

Wallace says there's also been a lot of interest shown in the former Abitibi property on 9th Street North and believe there should be some growth in that area in the coming year.
