what our community is saying ...
“Economic development can be a complicated and arduous process. I have been so heartened to see participation from both the public and private sector, and that those involved have been dedicating their time and creativity to this effort, it shows!”
Amanda Reimanukiah
"I'm so pleased to be part of this and to bring more of our community to the planning and action. I love the way MOVE 2030 has helped us to build a stronger support network. Where walls have previously been hit, MOVE 2030 has helped us to move around them. It's really inspiring. I'm looking forward to the action teams moving forward with the plans!"
Jessi AlvaradoCovelo
"As Mendocino County faces falling revenue and rising needs, MOVE 2030 is helping county residents with boundless energy, intense focus, and practical approaches which contrast sharply with the well-meant but vague biz-dev efforts of the past; to help pull themselves out of the current economic muck through hard work, entrepreneurial zeal, and the satisfaction that comes from seeing their dreams become realities”
Tom MurphyGMAC
"Under prohibition, those involved in cannabis were not invited to the table for these discussions. Participating in the MOVE 2030 process has given our industry a voice at the table and a sense of belonging in the community.”
Flow KanaRedwood Valley
"This is an amazing opportunity for our county, and people are so eager to help that I believe much-needed changes will happen."
