2019 KY Governor's race: on Budget & Economy


Adam Edelen: Kentucky Kick Start: make Main Streets bustling again

Kentucky's history and heritage was built on the main streets of our cities and small towns. Unfortunately, for decades we've watched too many Kentucky main streets go from bustling centers of commerce, arts and civic life to empty spaces and boarded-up storefronts. We are going to rebuild Kentucky, and we need to start by rebuilding our main streets--one block at a time.

A "Kick Start" to Growth and Revitalization: The Edelen-Holland Team are ready to help lead a renaissance in delivering economic and cultural vitality to our main streets.

One of the greatest barriers to channeling investment into Kentucky communities is matching national capital with local opportunity. The Kentucky Kick Start will create a simple, searchable and scalable platform for local communities to showcase investment opportunities, as well as community needs, to investors no matter whether they are a company looking for room to grow or an individual seeking the right environment to open a new business.
