ACDC
ACDC was organized in the 1970s to attract business into the county. In 1995, ACDC decided that economic development in the county would best be served by a full-time employee and office. The dedicated citizens of the ACDC Board of Directors worked diligently to pass a 1/4 cent sales tax for an economic development office. Today, ACDC is celebrating 10 years in economic development.
