Economic vitality is critical to our community's quality of life and the superb public services we have come to expect in Montgomery County. This is why even during the worst economic recession in our nation's history and in light of declining federal spending; a dramatic shift in office space use by both public and private sectors; and the increasingly competitive economic landscape, County Executive Leggett has been championing and taking a series of bold actions to advance major economic development initiatives for sustained economic growth. Together these actions demonstrate the County’s commitment to our community’s economic health and continued quality of life
“A Bus Rapid Transit system will give County residents more transportation options, help the environment and is absolutely necessary to foster the creation of 100,000 new jobs in the County over the next decade. That means more good jobs and a bigger tax base.”
