Joint Committee on Community Development and Small BusinessesOn Monday, September 26, 2011, the CDP hosted the Joint Committee on Community Development and Small Businesses when they visit Cape Cod as part of this fall’s Statewide Community Development Listening Tour. Cape Cod was the second of seven regional stops across the state. The Tour began at 3:00 pm at Thankful Chases Pathway at 35 Main Street Extension in Harwich. The Committee explored this LEED certified site’s renewable energy features and discussed plans for “greening up” area rental units. At 3:45pm, the Committee headed to the Cape Cod Commercial Hook Fisherman’s Association for an hour of roundtable discussion with other local leaders in the field of community development, community partners and local officials. The conversation focused on recent efforts by community development organizations in the area, current challenges and best practices in the field, and how the state can be most helpful.
