The Inland Empire Economic Partnership will recognize the leaders of more than two dozen IE governments and agencies at this evening's annual "Turning Red Tape To Red Carpet" Awards. The IEEP, the region's largest economic development organization, bestows the awards to cities, counties, and other jurisdictions who come up with innovative ways to enhance job growth and the local economy in spite of an often difficult regulatory environment. In Part 1 of a two-part series (Part 2 is also posted on this website), KVCR News/UCR School of Public Policy intern Tai Le talked with officials from several cities about the programs and initiatives that the IEEP is recognizing, and compiled and wrote this report for KVCR's Ken Vincent.
