STARKVILLE, Miss. (WTVA) – A new partnership looks to help Oktibbeha County grow.
The Dispatch in Starkville reports county supervisors approved a contract with the firm, Clearwater Group, LLC, pending revisions.
Clearwater Group specializes in federal, state and local government relations, as well as fundraising, political consulting, business development and grassroots advocacy.
The county says this partnership could help in a number of areas, including road funding.
“You need someone who has contacts, connections and relationships who really has the know-how to help find the dollars that you may be eligible for that you may have to compete for,” Board President Orlando Trainer told the newspaper.
