WASHINGTON, D.C. – Senator Tom Harkin (D-IA) on Thursday announced that the Southeast Iowa Regional Planning Commission will receive $54,900 to update its comprehensive economic development strategy in West Burlington. The funds were made available through the U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) Economic Development Administration. Harkin is a senior member of the Senate Appropriations Committee that funds the DOC.

“I congratulate Des Moines County on receiving this grant,” said Harkin. “Economic development in Iowa relies on strong, long-term development strategies, and this grant will allow West Burlington to continue investing in sound, stable projects that create jobs and career opportunities.”
