MEAL with Jakob Bigard | City of Hudsonville Update

Hudsonville Economic Development Director, Jakob Bigard, will present current and future city projects.

About Our Speaker:

Born and raised in Mount Pleasant, Jakob graduated from Grand Valley State University with a bachelor’s in political science and a master’s in public administration. He previously served as a program manager at GVSU’s Hauenstein Center and worked the last two years for The Right Place, driving job creation and capital investment in advanced manufacturing. Now, as the Economic Development Director, Jakob brings a wealth of experience to the team. In this role, he will oversee the preparation of plans, policies, and programs to guide the city’s growth and conservation, with an exciting emphasis on establishing a traditional downtown that blends historical charm with modern progress. Collaborating with other department directors, Jakob will manage economic development, lead physical planning and land development efforts, oversee city building and land use regulations, and spearhead housing conservation, rehabilitation, and community development initiatives.
