Gateway Area Development District
Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy
Executive Summary
Gateway Area Development District, a quasi-governmental 501(C) 3 non-profit organization and
one of the 15 Area Development Districts serving the Commonwealth of Kentucky, provides a
myriad of services to Bath, Menifee, Montgomery, Morgan, and Rowan Counties. Gateway
Area Development District serves as a regionalized source of technical support and program
management for the local elected officials and the citizenry of its five-county service region.
Like other regional development organizations nationwide, Gateway ADD shares these common
characteristics:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Extensive program and service delivery experience and capacity
Fiscal Accountability
Technical and Professional Staff
Non-partisan approach
Flexibility
Broad-based partnership development
However, unlike many other multi-jurisdictional agencies, Area Development Districts in the
Commonwealth of Kentucky have both state and federal statutory authority.
As an Economic Development Authority-funded planning organization, Gateway Area
Development District must develop a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS)
“…as part of a continuous process involving the active participation of private sector
representatives, public officials, and private citizens1” which includes the following activities:
•
•
•
•
Analyzing local economies
Defining economic development goals
Determining project opportunities
Formulating and implementing an economic development program that includes
systemic efforts to reduce unemployment and increase incomes2
The CEDS is created by Gateway ADD staff in coordination with local elected officials and
input from the private sector, higher education, and other groups. Upon adoption by the
Gateway ADD Board of Directors, the CEDS is submitted to the Governor’s Office for Local
Development and the Economic Development Administration, as well as distributed to local
elected officials and made available for public review.

Councils and Committees
The needs of the local citizens are the main emphasis of the Gateway Area Development
District. Therefore, Gateway ADD uses a number of councils and committees to oversee
important regional issues. These councils are made up of both office-holding officials as well as
non-office-holding citizens. This level of diversity lends to the success of these committees as
they guide the development and implementation of the district’s Comprehensive Economic
Development Strategy.
The Gateway Area Development District currently has committees that address a variety of
issues:
•
•
•
•
•
CEDS Advisory Committee
Gateway ADD Water Management Council
Regional Transportation Committee
Gateway ADD Aging Council
Gateway Regional Elder Abuse Taskforce
A list of the membership of these committees and councils can be found in Appendix D.
Integration with the Goals for the Commonwealth
Employment and Economic Growth
To increase the competitiveness of the communities located within the Gateway Area
Development District and make businesses in the area more globally competitive, it is necessary
to develop a widespread high-speed Internet infrastructure. The Gateway Area Development
District is working with Connect Kentucky to make broadband Internet service available to every
business and household in the area. With this infrastructure in place, entrepreneurs and
technology-based companies will be able to locate in the area and remain a global competitor on
the Internet.
Improvements in basic infrastructure continue to be a priority within the Gateway Area
Development District. Building capacity for future development remains a driving force, and
5
within the last year, the Morehead Utility Plant Board completed construction of its wastewater
treatment plant expansion doubling its previous capacity.
Improvements in transportation systems are another way to create economic development
opportunity. Construction of the new Morehead Airport is nearing completion; with the
completion of this new 5000 feet runway the airport will have the capacity for larger aircraft
including small jets. The location of the new airport is near the borders of Rowan, Fleming, and
Bath Counties in close proximity to the MMRC Regional Business Park. The new airport will
better serve industries within the industrial park and serve as a marketing tool to draw new
industry to the area.
Strengthen Kentucky's Education System
In order for the Gateway region to move from being economically disadvantaged to having a
strong, globally competitive economy, the workforce of the Gateway region must be equipped
with an education that prepares them to work in the 21st-century economy. Local projects like
the MSU Enterprise/Technology Center and the Morehead State University satellite campuses at
Mt. Sterling and West Liberty show the region’s dedication to focusing and strengthening the
mission of the state universities serving the region. Statewide initiatives such as Connect
Kentucky, which will bring broadband Internet connectivity to homes and businesses in the
Gateway region, are examples of advances in information technology. Finally, programs such as
WIA and other Workforce Development programs are allowing more students to access the
postsecondary training and education that will allow them to achieve lifelong success.
A Healthier Kentucky
Promoting a healthier Kentucky has long been a priority at the Gateway Area Development
District, especially for seniors. In the last fiscal year, the Gateway Area Development District
conducted health fairs throughout the region. These health fairs provide information related to
chronic disabling conditions and advocacy related to health issues and provide free screenings
for blood pressure, blood sugar, bone density, muscle tension, hand strength, etc. These health
fairs, along with other activities, encourage wellness and healthier lifestyles for the residents of
the area.
To help guide the Gateway ADD region through the 21st century, plans are underway through a
partnership between Morehead State University (MSU), the University of Kentucky (UK), and
St. Claire Regional Medical Center to construct a regional Center for Health Education and
Research. This facility will house MSU’s departments of nursing and imaging services, UK’s
physician assistance and family nurse practitioner programs, in addition to a freestanding
primary care clinic, and comprehensive health education center.
6
A Safe Kentucky
Along with increased education, ensuring safe and secure communities in the Gateway region is
instrumental in implementing the CEDS Strategy, as well as meeting the goals for the
Commonwealth. Operation UNITE has been active in the Gateway region in combating the
proliferation of illegal drug use. Several public safety organizations in Gateway Area
Development District have benefited from state and federal preparedness funding. The
Montgomery County Sheriff's Department received funds from the COPS Technology program
to implement a communications enhancement project. The City of Morehead and Menifee
County Fiscal Court received grant funds for communications
Efficient and Ethical Government
Finally, facilitating responsible governance is a key aspect of both the CEDS and the Governor’s
goals for Kentucky. The Gateway region has used the CEDS process to implement a
performance-oriented culture aimed at creating the most results with the least amount of public
investment. The region has also maximized current resources by fostering more regional
projects, such as the Cave Run Water Commission Inter-Connect, which will provide water to
several counties with investment into only one project. Moving toward regionalization is a key
point of the CEDS process and will ensure that resources are used in a effective and efficient
manner.

Economic Analysis
3.A: Economic Background
The Gateway Area Development District service area is comprised of five Appalachian counties:
Bath, Menifee, Montgomery, Morgan, and Rowan Counties.
The five-county region
encompasses a land area of 1,344 square miles with a 2000 population of 76,237. The region
includes ten incorporated areas. The two largest cities are Morehead and Mt. Sterling, with
populations of 5,915 and 5,876 respectively. The following tables detail the population within
the region for incorporated areas and county seats.

According to 2005 population estimates, the population of the Gateway region has grown a total
of 19.15% over the past five years. Montgomery County has seen the largest population increase
at 7.5%, with Bath (4.9%), Menifee (3.9%), Morgan (2.8%), and Rowan (.06%) experiencing
growth as well.
Analogous to other Appalachian-region counties, Bath, Menifee, Montgomery, Morgan, and
Rowan Counties experience various levels of economic disparity when compared to the state and
national averages for unemployment, per-capita income, and other economic pointers. The
following table summarizes this information.

Historically, the economy of the Gateway region has focused heavily upon agriculture
(especially the production of tobacco) and manufacturing/distribution. Because of the changes in
global, as well as national and state, economies, these sectors have experienced more economic
downturn in the past few years than others. The economic recession facing the United States has
also pummeled the Gateway region, causing the closure of many employers and further
exacerbating already higher than average unemployment. The weakness of the national and
global economy has greatly affected the Gateway region as well.

Industrial Parks
Strengths
Weaknesses
Opportunities
Threats
-
Diversified industries
Low cost of business
Infrastructure capacity for future expansion
Lack of regionalized cooperation
Lack of resources (staffing, funds, partnerships)
Some Gateway counties lack interstate access
Opportunities to develop regionalized partnerships
Increasing use of airports and aviation-based business
New land-use planning will create smart growth
Continuing issues with workforce (drugs, lack of skills, shortage)
Increasing competition for resources
"Turf wars" preventing regional initiatives
Local industry provides employment for a large percentage of the area workforce. Communities
in the Gateway area realize the importance of industry to the area. To help encourage industry to
locate in the area, industrial parks that have building sites and infrastructure capacity available
for industrial needs have been developed. There are five industrial parks in the Gateway Area
Development District area – the Midland Trial Industrial Park, the Woodlands Industrial Park,
the John Will Stacy MMRC Regional Business Park, Bath County Industrial Park, and Menifee
County Industrial Park.
Two of the five industrial parks in the area are located in Montgomery County—Midland Trail &
Woodlands. The Midland Trail Industrial Park is the most mature of the three industrial parks in
the area. Located approximately 1.0 mile east of Mt. Sterling City limits, there are 17 businesses
currently in the park with only 11.5 acres remaining for development.
The Woodlands
Industrial park is located 1.6 miles east of Mt. Sterling city limits; there are 11 businesses
currently in the park with 190 acres available for development.
Bath County's industrial park has seen gains and losses during the past fiscal year. Custom
Foods, a food product manufacturer, has expanded its facility and added a number of new
positions. However, Key Electronics, a producer of circuit boards and other components,
recently announced that it was closing its Owingsville location as a part of its move to
consolidate operations. The growth of the Menifee County Industrial park has been hampered
due to lack of industrial property. The county has indicated that the acquisition of new property
is a high priority activity for the next fiscal year.
The John Will Stacy MMRC Regional Business Park is located in Rowan County 1.2 miles north
of I-64 along KY 801 and 5 miles west of Morehead city limits. The MMRC regional park
represents a collaborative, ongoing effort between Menifee, Morgan, and Rowan Counties.
Being the newest business park in the area, there are 4 business located there with 357 acres still
available for development.

Lower than average number of citizens with undergraduate degrees
Collaboration between employers and educators
Conducting a capital-needs assistance and analysis for local schools
Developing programs to educate seniors
Reliance on a technology-only curriculum
Funding will not keep pace with technology
Continuing communication gap between educators and industry
Educational institutions create the foundations upon which the economy can build. Within the
Gateway Area Development District, there are three higher-education institutions helping drive
the local economy—Morehead State University (MSU), Maysville Community and Technical
College (MCTC), and the University of Kentucky (UK).
The predominant institution in the area is Morehead State University. With the university and
main campus located in the city of Morehead in Rowan County, a regional extended campus in
the city of Mt. Sterling in Montgomery County, and a regional extended campus in the city of
West Liberty in Morgan County, MSU has the greatest physical presence, influence, and
economic impact of any educational institution in the area. Due to increasing enrollment
demands, new facilities for the West Liberty and Mt. Sterling regional extended campuses were
constructed in 2002 and 2003 respectively. Enrollment demand was underestimated for the Mt.
Sterling campus and it is currently undertaking additional expansion to meet the surge of
enrollment. U.S. News & World Report has recognized Morehead State University for the past
three years as one of the top 25 public universities in the south in its annual publication of
“America’s Best Colleges”.
Operating under the statewide Kentucky Community & Technical College System, the Maysville
Community and Technical College has two of its four sites in the Gateway ADD service area –
the Rowan Campus in Morehead and the East Kentucky Branch Campus, which is located in the
Eastern Kentucky Correctional Complex, a medium security state prison, in West Liberty.
MCTC offers the region's residents the opportunity to complete certificate, diploma, and
associate degree programs that prepare them to enter a career field or to proceed with a
baccalaureate program.
Housing the area’s only “business incubator” space, the MSU Enterprise/Regional Technology
Center's 3,500 square foot business pavilion was designed to create a dynamic environment
where businesses can focus on product and technology development, sales, and marketing. The
Center provides facilities and equipment when available, management assistance, administrative
assistance and back office support to its tenants.

-
WIA program is a good start in training our workforce
Good access to post-secondary education
Good work ethic among workforce
Reliance on social services keep many out of the workforce
Much of the workforce lacks skills needed by local industry
Rapid increase in the cost of post-secondary education
Pilot innovative subsidized childcare program
Revolutionize work skills education to create a competitive workforce
Developing programs to educate seniors
Not changing quickly enough to avoid leaving existing industries
Existing institutions continuing the status quo
One of the key aspects of attracting and retaining the business and industry of the 21st century is
to have an ample labor force with the requisite education and skills to become successful
employees. However, given the history of social and economic disadvantages plaguing the
Gateway region, this is often a challenge. Programs like the Workforce Investment Act (WIA),
however, are removing the obstacles that stand between Gateway-area residents and the postsecondary education they need to become successful in the ever-evolving workforce.
WIA provides three different assistance programs to qualifying citizens. Adults are eligible to
receive W.I.A services if they meet the local area’s policy that target low income adults. This
helps remove the barriers between economically-disadvantaged adults and the training they need
to better themselves and their families economically.
Another WIA assistance opportunity is the dislocated work program, in which dislocated
workers are eligible to receive W.I.A services if they have been terminated, laid off, or have
received a notice of termination or layoff from employment. The dislocated worker program
allows these workers to receive the post-secondary education and training they need as the
foundation of a new career.
Finally, the Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) program helps trade-affected workers who have
lost their jobs as a result of increased imports or shifts in production out of the United States.
TAA program services and benefits are provided to help eligible workers get back to work. To
obtain TAA reemployment services and benefits, the group of workers must first file a petition
with the U.S. Department of Labor's Division of Trade Adjustment Assistance (DTAA)
requesting certification as workers adversely affected by foreign trade. If the petition is certified,
each worker in the group must then apply for individual services and benefits through their local
One-Stop Career Center to determine individual eligibility for reemployment services and
benefits. This program is especially important to the Gateway region, which economic
background is based heavily on manufacturing. Several textile companies, such as Jockey
International and Carhart, as well as other manufacturing firms, have left the region in the past
few years, leaving hundreds of dislocated workers seeking new jobs.

-
The Gateway Area Development District is the designated Area Agency on Aging for the
Gateway District. The Area Agency on Aging is responsible for planning and developing the
Area Plan and implementing services through contractual arrangements with service providers.
The Area Agency implements the Older Americans Act of 1965 as amended, the state funded
Home Care Program, Adult Day/Alzheimer’s Respite Program and the Personal Care Attendant
Program.
Title III of the Older Americans Act provides for congregate meals, home delivered meals, and
supportive services that include transportation, outreach, information and assistance, escort,
recreation, nutrition education, legal assistance and the long-term care ombudsman program.
Services are available to persons aged 60 years and older. The following groups of elderly
persons are given priority in receiving services: minorities, low-income, homebound, 75 years
and older, geographically isolated, with special emphasis placed on low-income minorities.
Title III does not use any means test, but contributions are requested and encouraged for services
provided.
The National Family Caregiver Program was initially funded in 2002 under the Older Americans
Act. Services are provided to family members caring for seniors (60+) and to grandparents (who
are 60+) caring for grandchildren under the age of 19.
Home Care services are provided to persons 60 years of age and older who have physical
impairments which interfere with their normal activities of daily living and maintaining a home.
This program provides home delivered meals, chore, home repair, escort, respite, homemaker,
and personal care. Each client is assessed and provided case management. A sliding fee scale is
used to determine the cost of services for a client whose income is above the guidelines ($8,000
per individual). Less than one percent of Home Care Clients are required to pay a fee.
13
Adult Day/Alzheimer's Respite services are also provided in Menifee, Morgan, and Montgomery
Counties. These services provide care for the elderly during the day while family members work
or are provided respite services. Adult Day clients must be 60 but Alzheimer’s clients of any age
may be eligible.
Kentucky Legal Aid provides legal aid services for the five counties of the district. Attorneys
are available at the senior centers on a monthly basis.
The Personal Care Attendant Program, administered through the AAA, provides up to 40 hours
per week of personal attendant care for adults aged 18 and above. In order to be eligible, the
individual must have lost functional use of two or more limbs.

Transportation infrastructure is one of the most important issues in ensuring a strong regional
economy. The ability for manufacturers to efficiently ship their products and receive the raw
materials necessary for production, as well the ability of retailers to receive goods, is of the
utmost importance. Good transportation infrastructure facilitates commuting of citizens to work
and school. Finally, offering beautiful scenic routes is essential to spurring tourism in the fivecounty area.
The Gateway region enjoys a robust transportation network. Three of the five Gateway counties
enjoy direct access to Interstate 64, one of the nation’s busiest transportation routes. The region
has two airports—one located in Mt. Sterling with the other being located in Rowan County.
Other major transportation routes include U.S. 60, U.S. 460, and KY 32 among others, as well as
a close proximity (less than 60 miles) to Interstate 75.
However, analogous to other Appalachian regions of the state, transportation infrastructure
continues to be a major obstacle to economic development, especially in Menifee and Morgan
Counties, which do not have direct access to I-64. Several projects have been undertaken over
the past fiscal year to improve transportation capacity and efficiency in the Gateway region.
Some major transportation projects recently completed or currently in progress are:

Water & Wastewater Infrastructure
- Cave Run Lake
- Regional interconnects
Strengths
- Strong support from local officials to continue expansion
- Topography prevents service in some areas
- Lack of sewer service in rural regions
Weaknesses
- Aging/substandard infrastructure
- Region has good water source, just needs to develop infrastructure
Opportunities
- Development of regionalized approach to water/wastewater problems
- Budgets can be modified to include capital improvements
- Contamination of Cave Run Lake
Threats
- Aging systems and equipment
- Shortsighted planning and growth patterns
Water and wastewater infrastructure is crucial to not only providing better quality of life for the
citizenry of the Gateway region, but also in making the area conducive to business and industrial
expansion. Providing access to public water and wastewater treatment infrastructure, as well as
having the excess capacity to serve the needs of business and industry is an urgent priority for
the Gateway region and Gateway ADD.
The Gateway Area Development District contracts with the Kentucky Infrastructure Authority to
carry out water management planning in our five counties. Under this contract, Gateway ADD
provides individual water and wastewater utilities with project planning and development
support. Among other activities, each year, a project priority list, approved by the Area Water
Management Council, is provided to state and federal legislators for funding consideration.
The Morehead Utility Plant Board completed construction of its wastewater treatment plant
expansion in February 2006. This project doubled the capacity of the plant, located in Farmers,
from 2.5 MGD to 5.0 MGD. Funding sources that made this project possible included:
Kentucky Infrastructure Authority (KIA) SRF loan, 2003/2005 Tobacco Development Fund
Grants, Economic Development Administration (EDA), Rural Development (RD), Appalachian
16
Regional Commission (ARC), and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The total project
cost was approximately $11,675,000.
Another huge success in providing public water for the region is the construction of the Cave
Run Water Commission and its 2 MGD water treatment plant to serve Menifee County and the
region. The regional water treatment plant, located on Route 1693 (Dan Ridge) in Menifee
County, has been operational since August 2005. The Cave Run Water Commission was formed
in May 2001 and has been working diligently to complete their first major project. Cave Run is
a wholesale supplier of water to the following water utilities: the City of Frenchburg, the City of
Jeffersonville, and the Morgan County Water District.
Funding commitments from the KIA, the ARC, RD, EDA, and the Department for Local
Government’s Community Development Block Grant Program have made the nearly $13
Million project a reality. The success of the project has been made possible by the sincere desire
of the communities involved to work together to improve the water supply for the region. The
completion of the project will provide an adequate and affordable water source for Frenchburg
and Menifee County, the City of Jeffersonville, and portions of Morgan and Wolfe Counties for
many years to come.
Many other smaller projects such as line extensions and upgrades, water tank upgrades, and
treatment plant upgrades have occurred in the region, increasing the percentage of households
and business served. However, there is still much work to be done until universal coverage of
the five-county area is achieved.

Information technology security
Technological innovation is one of the most important aspects of being competitive in the 21st
century economy. Technology is linking the world in ways that were once only dreamed about.
However, with this increase in information production and sharing comes the realization that the
boundaries of the economy are no longer local, or even regional. The only way to become and
18
remain competitive in this global market is to harness to increased productivity, efficiency, and
other benefits of information technology.
The Gateway region has made great strides in increasing the number of households and
businesses that have access to the Internet, preferably a broadband connection, by coordinating
heavily with Connect Kentucky. Not only does this program seek to increase access to
information technology, but it also provides technical support for leveraging the benefits of
information technology, such as advertising, e-commerce, and service provision.
The Morgan County Regional Technology Center, located in West Liberty, is a regional leader in
technology. Through its business incubation program, high tech firms are able to lease office
space with access to state-of-the-art information technology infrastructure during the start-up
phase. Several projects are in progress, such as a high-tech training program and a telemedicine
pilot.
Morehead State University, the region’s leader in post-secondary education, has emerged as a
leader in using technology to meet its goals. The University has successfully used Interactive
Television lectures to link instructors with students at satellite campuses. The University also
uses a computerized system for student grades and financial accounts. The University is home to
the Space Science Center, one of only four institutions in the United States to offer a degree in
space science.
Furthermore, Morehead State University has emerged as the lead institution in a consortium of
Kentucky universities endeavoring to launch a satellite into orbit. This ambitious project will
place the Commonwealth in the history books as the first state to launch a satellite. Research and
development into this project is expected to foster a high-tech environment not unlike Silicon
Valley, giving rise to an economic cluster dubbed “Silicon Holler” by Morehead State University
President Dr. Wayne Andrews.

efforts. Three of the biggest environmental concerns associated with these natural resources and
others in the Gateway region are water quality, sustainable logging, and flood control.

Given not only the health and safety of the citizens, but also the Gateway’s region’s pristine
natural beauty and the area’s burgeoning tourism industry, it is imperative that safeguarding and
protecting the environment is a key focal point of future economic and development planning
efforts. Three of the biggest environmental concerns associated with these natural resources and
others in the Gateway region are water quality, sustainable logging, and flood control.
Logging quotas have been maintained in the Daniel Boone National Forest since the 2000 Forest
Inventory. The Forest Service has stuck to its sustainable yield policy, which indicates that local
loggers will need to look other places besides the National Forest for resources, perhaps even
utilizing private forests. In order to ensure sustainable logging in the Gateway region, the
emphasis must be turned away from simply logging to production of wood products, thus adding
value to each log cut instead of for more logs cut.
One of the many projects making a huge difference in protecting the environment of the
Gateway region is the PRIDE. PRIDE (Personal Responsibility in a Desired Environment) is a
nonprofit organization funded by federal grants to encourage and assist citizens, local
governments, schools and others in 38 counties of southern and eastern Kentucky to:
1. Improve water quality in the region.
2. Clean up illegal trash dumps and other solid waste problems.
3. Promote environmental awareness and education8.
Some of the efforts in the Gateway counties which PRIDE has been involved with are septic tank
installations and replacements for low-income citizens, illegal dumpsite cleanups, appliance “buy
back” days, tire disposal events, and spreading public awareness and education about protecting
the environment for future generations.
Other organizations within the Gateway area have also taken proactive stances toward
environmental responsibility. Morehead State University has been recognized for its efforts in
recycling and energy conservation. Since 1993, the university has recycled over 5.6 million
pounds of refuse that would have ordinarily ended up in a landfill9. The University also has an
aggressive energy conservation plan, including measures such as implementing computerized
climate control of certain facilities during non-peak hours10.
Not only are large institutions such as universities concerned about the quality of the
environment, but citizens are also interested in conservation, as indicated through the NewCity
Morehead Community Planning sessions. Over 150 Rowan County citizens were involved in
comprehensive planning process, and many raised concerns ranging from promoting pedestrianfriendly infrastructure to reduce vehicular traffic to implementing countywide zoning standards.
It is obvious that efforts to protect the environment and natural beauty of the region will only be
successful with large amounts of public support.

3.B. Other Plans and Strategies
Appalachian Regional Commission
Created in 1965 after the passage of the historic Appalachian Regional Development Act, the
Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) is charged with addressing the economic disparity
within the Appalachian region. The efforts of ARC are divided into two categories: area
development and the Appalachian Highway program and are guided by Appalachian Regional
Commission Strategic Plan. This guidance document identifies four main goals to be addressed:
21
•
•
•
•
Increase job opportunities and per capita income in Appalachia to reach parity with the
nation.
Strengthen the capacity of the people of Appalachia to compete in the global economy.
Develop and improve Appalachia's infrastructure to make the Region economically
competitive.
Build the Appalachian Development Highway System to reduce Appalachia's isolation11 .
In order to achieve the goals identified in its Strategic Plan, ARC:
Provides funding for several hundred projects throughout the Appalachian
Region. These projects create thousands of new jobs, improve local water and
sewer systems, increase school readiness, expand access to health care, assist
local communities with strategic planning, and provide technical, managerial, and
marketing assistance to emerging new businesses12.
Area development projects range in scope from infrastructure development to entrepreneurship
initiatives to technology projects. The Appalachian Develop Highway System was developed as
a way to bring modern transportation infrastructure, and the correlated economic benefits to the
Appalachian region. The ADHS is currently authorized at 3,090 miles. By the end of FY 2005,
2,633 miles—approximately 85 percent of the miles authorized—were complete or under
construction. Completion of the ADHS remains a top priority for ARC.
The Gateway region has benefited greatly from the presence of ARC in its five-county service
region. Gateway Area Development District will continue working with local units of
government and ARC to ensure efficient and effective use of funding.
ConnectKentucky
ConnectKentucky is an alliance of leaders in private industry, government and universities.
These leaders work together to develop the most effective technological infrastructure for
Kentucky. ConnectKentucky creates both the forum and the incentive for interaction among a
variety of public policy, research, and business development entities that might not otherwise
11
12
http://www.arc.gov/index.do?nodeId=1

22
have the opportunity to seek and develop mutually beneficial solutions. Ultimately, this level of
teamwork means that Kentucky is a better place for business and a better place to live.
ConnectKentucky won the U.S. Economic Development Administration's 2006 Excellence in
Innovation Award. The EDA recognized ConnectKentucky and its implementation of
Kentucky’s Prescription for Innovation, a plan to accelerate growth in broadband deployment,
computer use and technology literacy, as a national leader in innovative strategies for economic
development
The mission of ConnectKentucky is to support technology-based economic development in
Kentucky through the following functions:
•
Technology Expansion: ConnectKentucky coordinates the planning, funding, deployment
and adoption of high-speed Internet, also called broadband, and related technology at the
local level.
•
Planning: ConnectKentucky supports the technology planning efforts of Kentucky’s
executive branch, the Kentucky General Assembly and local community leaders.
Additionally, ConnectKentucky provides technology consulting and research for
Kentucky companies, communities, and government entities that are implementing
technology expansion plans.
•
Public Policy: ConnectKentucky provides a centralized source for government affairs and
policy planning related to technology-based economic development.
•
Networking: ConnectKentucky maintains a strategic alliance of technology-minded
companies, universities, and government entities to share knowledge, ideas, and
resources and to communicate with a clear voice on issues that impact Kentucky’s
technological competitiveness.
•
Recruitment: ConnectKentucky works to proactively identify, recruit, and support
entrepreneurs and technology-based companies to Kentucky.
New Cities Morehead
The City of Morehead and Rowan County were presented a unique opportunity to become a
participant in the NewCities Institute. The New Cities Institute:
seeks to define and promote the economic and social vitality of what we call the
“New City,” regardless of its size or location. A “New City” is simply tomorrow’s
city, including changes in the social and physical environment, the economy, and
the children who will become its leaders. The Institute’s programs are offered to
23
strengthen local leadership, promote citizenship, and engage citizens in their
communities to build civic capacity13.
A series of community participation sessions were held at various locations around Rowan
County to enable all citizens to have a voice in this process. Several hundred citizens took
advantage of these opportunities to shape the plan for developing Rowan County’s future.
A variety of issues were address, ranging from zoning concerns to maximizing amenities for
tourists visiting Cave Run Lake and the Daniel Boone National Forest. Allowing citizens to
actively participate in forums like these mobilize resources and create widespread buy-in to the
process. Community involvement remained high across multiple public meetings as these
citizens forged the groundwork for a comprehensive planning document.
These suggestions, along with input from local officials, will be used to guide development in
the city and county for years to come. Future NewCities activities will focus on developing this
plan and putting it into action.
Owingsville Downtown Revitalization Plan
Upon being accepted as a candidate city into the Renaissance on Main program, the City of
Owingsville identified the need to have a comprehensive plan to guide its downtown
revitalization efforts. In 2005, Owingsville’s Downtown Renaissance Committee approved the
final draft of a comprehensive planning document.
The document provides a detailed plan for implementing sweeping changes to the downtown
area while complementing the historical background of Owingsville and Bath County. The
comprehensive plan is divided into three major phases with an estimated cost of nearly $1
million. Since the plan was announced to the public, several downtown property owners have
implemented suggestions from the plan into their own privately-funded renovations. This
represents nearly $750,000 of private investments into a more beautiful downtown Owingsville.
As a result of the strong planning effort and the participation by the local community, the City of
Owingsville recently received a $300,000 Transportation Enhancement grant to implement phase
one of this sweeping downtown restoration plan.
Gateway Water Management Plan
The Gateway Area Development District, under contract with the Kentucky Infrastructure
Authority, performs local water management planning activities with all water and wastewater
utilities and units of local government within the five county Gateway Area Development
District. The Gateway Area Regional Water Management Council provides oversight of the
water management planning process. This Council is composed of representatives from
Gateway Area water and sewer utilities, county judges, mayors, and representatives from the
business community. Under the direction of Senate Bill 409, the Gateway Regional Water
Management Council is responsible for planning for the development of necessary infrastructure
13

to provide safe and affordable water and wastewater services to area citizens. Documentation of
planning efforts is contained in the Gateway Regional Water Management Plan, which is
available to the public Gateway Area Development District’s website at http://www.gwadd.org.
City of Sharpsburg Economic Development Plan
The City of Sharpsburg is a small city located in Bath County. In order to best assess the current
economic situation of the city and identify resources to be applied in future development
projects, the Bath County Fiscal Court applied for and received ARC Flex-E grant funds on
behalf of the City of Sharpsburg for developing an economic development plan. This plan
identifies several issues, such as creating community meeting space, raising the city’s visibility
through landscaping and signage, and working to retain younger, well educated citizenry, will
serve as the foundation of future development initiatives in Sharpsburg.
A major issue identified in the plan was branding the city and using this to attract visitors.
Thanks to a $12,000 Transportation Enhancement Grant, the City of Sharpsburg will be able to
increase the visibility of the community through signage and landscaping along the major
entrance route to the city.
Montgomery County Economic Development Plans
Montgomery County has two plans guiding its economic and social development activities. The
first in an overall Action Plan for the county which was developed by a number of stakeholders
including representatives from local government, industry, community organizations, and local
religious groups. The plan identifies several goals and objectives for Montgomery County
ranging from industry recruitment and retention to developing a community branding strategy to
increase tourism. The plan also divides the tasks necessary to achieve these goals among the
involved entities.
The second plan targets industrial development specifically. The plan addresses physical
development of the county’s industrial parks, upgrading the skills of the county’s workforce, and
harnessing additional resources for economic development. Partners included in this plan
include local industries, the Montgomery County School District, local vocational and
community colleges, and representatives from the local medical community.
Morgan County Development Plan
The Morgan County Fiscal court has commissioned a county-wide economic development plan
to assess current the current economic climate and to maximize resources toward defined future
development. The plan has culminated in the formation of a voluntary Economic Development
Group, which secured ARC Flex-E grant funding to create a comprehensive website and
multimedia marketing product.

Gateway Area Development District
Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy
Economic Cluster Analysis
The Gateway region has two established economic clusters and one that is primed for
development. Agriculture has always been a major part of the region’s economy, and it still
plays a major, and evolving, role. Along with agriculture, tourism is a major economic cluster
that generates revenues for the region. Finally, high-tech research and development, not a sector
usually identified with Appalachia, could potentially become one of the most important clusters
in eastern Kentucky.
Agriculture
The face of agriculture in the Gateway region is changing. As tobacco production is phased out,
farmers must look for new ways to generate revenue from their land. A shift toward livestock
production is one of the major realignments in the agricultural sector. As livestock become more
prevalent, additional support industries have appeared. Value-added agribusiness, such as herd
control, processing, and marketing, located in the Gateway region has increased the profitability
of local livestock producers. There is great potential for growth in this sector.
As the production of tobacco has dwindled, many farmers have looked to new types of crops and
products to increase revenues. Local farms now produce shitake mushrooms. Entrepreneurs in
Montgomery County have invested in infrastructure for shrimp production. These products are
then sold to local restaurants and retailers, which increases the value to the local economy.
Ventures like these are essential to generating money and keeping it in the local economy.
Agri-tourism, such as regional “barn and breakfast” routes for visiting horseback riders have also
been touted as a way to generate additional cash flow from farm land. Farm owners who wish
to participate join a cooperative that markets the venture and places occupants. Occupants enjoy
a day riding on local trails and then stable their horses in barns while staying in the homes of
participating farmers. This project would generate additional income for farmers and prove to be
an attractive adjunct to the local tourism industry as well.
Tourism
The natural beauty of the Gateway region makes tourism a vital economic cluster in the local
economy. The many tourist destinations located in the Gateway region draw thousands to the
area each year, generating valuable revenue for the local economy. Cave Run Lake and Daniel
Boone National Forest are two of the largest attraction in the region, drawing in thousands of
visitors who spend millions of dollars.
28
However, the economic effect of tourism goes beyond affecting just the hospitality sector. The
increased traffic generated by tourism provides additional marketing opportunities for local
products. Artisans and producers of other items have come to depend on tourism-related
transactions as part of their overall yearly sales. Some of these items, such as Ruth Hunt candies,
have become major attractions, aiding in drawing tourists into the region.
The rustic beauty of eastern Kentucky is an obvious backdrop for outdoor enthusiasts to pursue
their activities of choice. The mountains, gorges, rivers, and lakes provide a place for adventure
tourists to get away from everyday life and enjoy nature. However, despite having many pieces
of the puzzle in place, eastern Kentucky still needs managed and sustainable development to
harness its true potential as a world class adventure tourism destination. Using grant funds from
the Appalachian Regional Commission, the Kentucky Department of Tourism commissioned a
Eastern Kentucky Comprehensive Adventure Tourism Plan for an 18 county pilot area. The
release of the Comprehensive Adventure Tourism Plan marked a watershed moment for
adventure sports in eastern Kentucky.
To build upon the findings and recommendations of the Comprehensive Adventure Tourism
Plan, Gateway Area Development District received an ARC Flex-E Planning Grant to develop
the Gateway Regional Adventure Tourism Plan for Bath, Menifee, Morgan, and Rowan
Counties. These four counties were included as part of the pilot project area for the initial
comprehensive adventure tourism plan. While Montgomery County, the fifth county in the
Gateway region, was not a part of the pilot focus area, Gateway ADD staff decided to include
Montgomery County in the planning project as a way of solidifying the regional planning efforts.
High Tech Research and Development: “Silicon Holler”
A third economic cluster is developing in the Gateway region. With the impending completion
of the Morehead State University Space Science Center, one of only four institutions in the
United States which offers a bachelor’s degree in space science, the Gateway region is ramping
up efforts to attract the interest of high-tech companies. A plan to be lead by Morehead State
University could spark a large amount of research and development investments in the Gateway
region.
A cooperative of state universities have announced a plan for Kentucky to become the first state
in the nation to send a satellite into space. The endeavor, managed by Morehead State
University, will set an exciting precedent in space research. In order to capitalize on the
publicity and excitement created by this project, local leaders of Rowan County are promoting an
area near Morehead State University, which has been dubbed “Silicon Holler.” If successful,
this area could become a thriving economic cluster centered on technology that will provide
high-paying, professional positions to the region. Not only will this help reduce unemployment
and increase per-capita income levels, but it will also provide valuable tax revenues to local units
of government. The development of this economic cluster will also provide much-needed
diversification to the economy of the Gateway region, which has historically been dominated by
agriculture and manufacturing/distribution.

Gateway Area Development District
Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy
EVALUATION / PERFORMANCE MEASURES
FY 2008-2009 Successes
Gateway Area Development District enjoyed success on several of the performance measures
identified in the 2007 Progress Kentucky Update. Some of the performance measures met by
Gateway Area Development District for FY 2008 are:
•
•
•
Jobs created or retained after the implementation of the 2008 CEDS: 68
Total number of projects implemented or completed from 2008 CEDS: 10
Total Amount (Private and Public) of 2008 CEDS Projects: $12,132,000
o Private Investment: $2,022,000
36
GOAL: To work with at least one regional project that impacts our fivecounty area through economic development or tourism and will enhance the
quality of life for the citizens of the Gateway region.
Objective 1.1:
Participate in at least one meeting involving participants from different counties, sectors,
and levels of government to identify viable projects to pursue.
Objective 1.2:
Serve as a liaison between local elected officials, state and federal representatives, and
members of the private sector.
EVALUATION:
Gateway Area Development District has continued working with local elected officials and other
stakeholders on the Cave Run Horse Trail Project to plan and complete an innovative horseback
trail around Cave Run Lake. Given the growth in popularity in equine sports and the huge
amount of attention attracted by the 2010 World Equestrian Games to be held in Lexington, this
project has potential to draw valuable tourism dollars to the region and become a nationally
renowned venue for horseback riding.
Gateway ADD has facilitated meetings between local elected officials, state and federal
representatives, and members of the private sector. Gateway ADD will continue working with
all involved parties to bring the proposed project to fruition. The proposed project has the
potential to attract visitors to the region, as well as supporting a number of ancillary business
opportunities such as tack shops, lodging, and restaurants.
This goal has been met and Gateway ADD will continue to strive to bring innovative new
regional projects to fruition. Only by working together can our counties create prosperity for all
citizens of the Gateway region.
37
GOAL: Work with at least one industry to either expand their current
operations or to locate a new facility in our area. This project would create at
least 10-15 new jobs.
Objective 2.1
Coordinate efforts with local units of governments and/or local industrial authorities to
identify local operations that are considering expansion or outside interests looking to
potentially locate in the Gateway region.
Objective 2.2
Work in conjunction with local units of government and interested private sector parties
to identify possible locations for development/expansion and identify the
strengths/weaknesses of each option (i.e. lack of wastewater treatment capacity).
Objective 2.3
After receiving commitment to expand/locate from interested parties from the private
sector, work with local, state, and federal governments to address deficiencies of
prospective sites (i.e. expand wastewater treatment facilities to provide additional
capacity).
EVALUATION:
Gateway Area Development District has continued working with one of the largest employers in
Bath County to implement a facility expansion that will create as many as 60 new jobs. To
facilitate this expansion project, a new wastewater treatment plant for the industrial park must be
constructed in order to provide the necessary treatment capacity. Funding sources for the project
include CDBG, EDA, ARC, and KIA. Construction is underway.
Projects like these are important to the economic stability of the region. This period of economic
recession has hit the Gateway region especially hard as major employers shed jobs. Any project
which creates or retains jobs for the citizens of the Gateway region is extremely crucial.
Additionally, an exciting development in Rowan County helped retain jobs at a local
manufacturer. Simba USA, a manufacturer of custom towels, was acquired by Calloway Golf, a
national leader in golf equipment. This acquisition kept over 15 jobs in Rowan County and
provides a foundation for future expansion.
38
GOAL: Assist local water and wastewater systems to identify and profile
projects to expand and upgrade the services which they offer to the
commercial and residential customers in the Gateway region.
Objective 3.1: Work with counties and water/wastewater systems to identify areas un-served
by
water and/or wastewater in order to plan and prioritize the use or current and
future infrastructure resources.
Objective 3.2: Work with counties and water/wastewater to identify the specific water and
wastewater infrastructure needs of businesses and industries in order to maximize
the potential for the expansion of current operations or the recruitment of new
ventures.
EVALUATION:
The Gateway Area Regional Water Management Council has continued to pursue the extension
of public water service to currently un-served areas of the Gateway Region during the past fiscal
year. All of the counties in the Gateway Region are more than 90% served with public water
service, with the exception being Morgan County. In the past year, the Morgan County Water
District has been the recipient of more than $2.2 million of state Coal Development Grant funds.
These funds have been used to extend public water service to approximately 207 households
previously without public water service. The Gateway Area Regional Water Management
Council will continue to pursue all available funding opportunities to ensure that all water
utilities are maintained and able to provide quality drinking water service to residents of the
Gateway Area.
Several wastewater projects have been completed in the past year. The Morehead Utility Plant
Board has completed several line extensions including projects to serve the Ellington Loop,
Copperas Hollow, Christy Creek, and Hilltop Estates areas of Rowan County. The Mount
Sterling Water & Sewer System has completed a Belt Filter Press project at its wastewater
treatment plant. The City of West Liberty has had ongoing construction at its wastewater
treatment plant that will increase the plant’s capacity to allow the City to serve future customers.
While the region clearly met its goals for FY 2008-2009, there is still much work to be done.
Gateway ADD will continue working with the Regional Water Management Council and local
utilities to implement innovative projects to provide citizens in the region with clean drinking
water and municipal sewer service.
39
GOAL: Provide services to raise the standard of living for the elderly
population of the Gateway region, which will allow them to live a healthier
and independent lifestyle.
Objective 4.1
Serve at least10 clients with respite care services
Objective 4.2
Coordinate the delivery of 150 meals to homebound seniors
Objective 4.3
Provide the tools necessary for Consumer Directed Options members to self-direct their
quality of life by assisting 25 clients
The Gateway Area Agency on Aging, housed within Gateway ADD, has met all of its goals for
the previous fiscal year. The services offered by the aging department are well utilized, and
many programs have waiting lists. In addition to the proposed goals, the aging department
continues to serve as a clearinghouse for the distribution of information to the elderly and serves
as a referral source to other community based programs. The aging department has also received
state funds to assist grandparents who are raising their grandchildren. This program has seen
great success throughout the Commonwealth and particularly in the Gateway region. These
services are vitally important to our most vulnerable citizens during these times of economic
uncertainty.
40
GOAL: Increase the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology
and applications by local units of government and regional stakeholders.
Objective 5.1
To work with at least one unit of local government to expand GIS capability through an
economic development or planning project.
Objective 5.2
Use GIS to implement at least one recommendation from the Eastern Kentucky
Comprehensive Adventure Tourism Plan.
Objective 5.3
Assist at least three local utilities with data collection and geospatial analysis for system
improvements.
The Gateway ADD GIS Department has worked hard to ensure that GIS technology is used
effectively by the stakeholders within our service region. The department is currently
completing an EDA-funding project to map the MMRC Business Park as part of a marketing
campaign for the park. The end result of the project is that businesses considering locating in the
park will be able to web-based GIS technology to survey the available plots and take a 3-D tour
of the entire park.
The GIS department has also worked with all of the utilities in the Gateway region to collect
geospatial data related to existing and proposed infrastructure features. This ongoing effort will
aid in the everyday maintenance of the systems as well as serve as a power tool when identifying
and planning for potential improvements. In order to maximize the impact of investments into
our region, our water and wastewater systems must continue to harness the potential of GIS
technology.
The Appalachian Regional Commission awarded Gateway ADD planning grant funds to develop
a Regional Adventure Tourism Plan. The planning project will use GIS for a variety of purposes
such as determining adventure tourism destination zones and identifying the locations of
resources. This project will provide a solid foundation for future adventure tourism-related
projects.
The Gateway ADD GIS Department has also completed projects which formed strong
partnerships with local businesses. Businesses in Bath County pooled their resources to
commission a comprehensive road map of the county. Not only is this map a valuable part of the
marketing campaign of these businesses, but it also provides a valuable informational resource to
new citizens and those traveling through the community.

New Water Supply Transmission Main
This project will construct a parallel 12-inch
transmission main to provide enhanced
reliability of water supply for the City of West
Liberty and Morgan County. Presently, a
single 12-inch water main is in place between
the raw water pump station, the water
treatment plant, and the City of West Liberty.
The line in use currently has a crossing under
Cave Run Lake and two crossings under the
Licking River which causes considerable risk
for line failure in these areas. The route of the
new line will be on the KY 519 corridor
between the City and Cave Run Lake. This
project will also serve the new elementary
school under construction on Route 7 and a

New Water Supply Transmission Main
This project will construct a parallel 12-inch
transmission main to provide enhanced
reliability of water supply for the City of West
Liberty and Morgan County. Presently, a
single 12-inch water main is in place between
the raw water pump station, the water
treatment plant, and the City of West Liberty.
The line in use currently has a crossing under
Cave Run Lake and two crossings under the
Licking River which causes considerable risk
for line failure in these areas. The route of the
new line will be on the KY 519 corridor
between the City and Cave Run Lake. This
project will also serve the new elementary
school under construction on Route 7 and a
