GYPSUM — According to the latest economic report from the Vail Valley Partnership, things are looking good in the town of Gypsum.
Gypsum Mayor Steve Carver agrees with that sentiment.
“Things are looking up here. They are looking good in the town of Gypsum,” said Carver.
He noted so far this year, Gypsum’s sales tax revenues are climbing. “We also have a lot of building permits out,” said Carver.
While the improved national economy is definitely part of that growth, Carver said Gypsum also does its part to boost economic growth.
