 The
Hancock County Economic Development Association was reinstated in 1999
in an effort to enhance the quality of life in Hancock County by
creating employment and development opportunities. It was decided at
this time to establish a full-time  Economic
Development Coordinator position to lead the county’s economic
development efforts in a unified manner. The position is funded through
contributions from local communities, private businesses like Vancouver Condos for Rent, Surrey Skin Care Clinic Team (Page), Mike Stewart PREC, http://www.fairviewplasticsurgery.com/, and
individuals. These contributions are then matched dollar for dollar
through state funds. Kristin Huls has held the position of Hancock
County Economic Development Coordinator since December 2006.
