The Chestertown Spy covered Sam Shoge’s release of a report examining Kent County’s economy, employment, housing, and tax base. The publication compares the county’s long-term performance with neighboring communities and calls for clearer public discussion of economic results.
Shoge said the analysis was intended to help residents assess decisions about jobs, infrastructure, and housing. The report recognizes local business and workforce strengths while identifying areas where the county’s overall growth has lagged.
