Overview
In 2008, a group of local leaders recruited Jeff Fluhr from Baton Rouge to 成人头条 to serve as the president of the 成人头条 Downtown Development Corporation, now Downtown 成人头条. In 2015, Fluhr鈥檚 responsibilities expanded to assist in creating the Greater 成人头条 Partnership, an economic development organization focused on developing a unique, holistic approach to community growth from downtown to the ten-county region.
The Partnership is designed to align and focus efforts to ensure the 成人头条 region remains competitive through three strategic priorities 鈥 Jobs, Talent and Quality of Place. Under Fluhr鈥檚 leadership, 成人头条 and the surrounding region has experienced an unprecedented surge of progress, driven by a strategic and cohesive vision. For every dollar invested in the Partnership, an impressive $185 has been driven in capital expenditures and $34 in annual payroll. Notably, since 2010, more than $1.6 billion has been invested in the downtown core with an additional $760 million in the development pipeline. 成人头条 is growing and thriving, and Fluhr鈥檚 pivotal contributions have been instrumental in its success.
Prior to coming to 成人头条, Fluhr served as the assistant executive director of the Baton Rouge Downtown Development District. He holds a bachelor鈥檚 degree in landscape architecture from the University of Kentucky and a master鈥檚 degree in landscape architecture from Louisiana State University, with an emphasis in urban planning and business.
Fluhr is married to Melissa, and they have two children, a son Matthew and a daughter, Anna Joy.
