County Connect

Stronger Communities Start With Stronger Connections

Through County Connect, we engage directly with municipal leaders to better understand local priorities, explore development opportunities, and strengthen partnerships. 

What is County Connect?

Moving Fayette County forward starts with working together

County Connect is Fay-Penn Economic Development Council’s municipal outreach initiative, designed to strengthen relationships with boroughs, townships, and communities throughout Fayette County.

Through direct conversations and municipal visits, our team works with local officials to gain a better understanding of their communities. As well as discuss current challenges, and identify opportunities for economic development and revitalization.

These conversations allow Fay-Penn to better align its resources, expertise, and partnerships with the evolving needs of Fayette County’s municipalities.

Our goal is simple: Build relationships, understand community needs, and identify opportunities for progress.

Supporting the Communities That
Shape Fayette County

From our boroughs and townships to the neighborhoods and business districts within them, each community plays an important role in Fayette County’s economic future.

Through County Connect, Fay-Penn works to strengthen relationships with local governments and gain firsthand insight into the opportunities and challenges facing our municipalities.

These conversations help inform our economic development efforts, encourage collaboration. We aim to create stronger connections between local leaders and available resources.

When our communities succeed, Fayette County succeeds.
