Since 1987, the Clyde Community Development Resource Committee (CCDRC) has supported Clyde’s development by surveying community needs, attracting Internet and health services, establishing a website and alumni connections, and more.

Current Activities:

• At its September meeting, the Clyde Community Development Resource Committee (CCDRC) set its priorities for the coming year.  The #1 priority is to address housing issues in Clyde.  A second priority is to support business development opportunities. At the October meeting, CCDRC reviewed Clyde’s housing market and discussed the development of a rental pamphlet for landlords.  The board also approved writing an application to the Clyde Area Foundation for the Welcoming Newcomers program.  For full meeting notes CLICK HERE.
