On Tuesday, July 22, the Sage Policy Group presented the new five-year Calvert County Economic Development Plan to the Calvert County Board of County Commissioners.
The plan, presented by economist Anirban Basu, outlines a strategic roadmap to foster sustainable economic growth while maintaining rural character, strengthening local industries and enhancing the county’s long-term economic resilience.
Developed in partnership with the Sage Policy Group and guided by stakeholder input, the plan identifies key opportunities and challenges facing Calvert County’s economy from Fiscal Years 2026 through 2031. It also includes recommendations to diversify the county’s economic base, support small businesses, expand workforce development and promote innovation while preserving the county’s rural character and quality of life.
“This plan offers well-informed, strategic framework for how Calvert County can thrive in the years ahead,” said Economic Development Director Julie Oberg. “We appreciate the Sage Policy Group and everyone who shared their insights to help shape our county’s economic future.”
