There are many businesses and companies in Tallapoosa County seeking employees — but not just laborers.
Now the Tallapoosa County Commission is considering a first of its kind in the state county extension agent to help address workforce development in Tallapoosa County. Alabama Cooperative Extension System Tallapoosa County Extension Coordinator Shane Harris officially requested funding from the commission for the position at its Monday meeting.
