ABOUT COASTAL 150
A CATALYST FOR CHANGE
Coastal 150 is an exclusive group of business and community leaders who work from a grassroots level to the highest levels of government to make coastal Alabama the place to live, work and play along the Gulf Coast.
​
Coastal 150 was founded in 2017 after the Alabama Legislature voted to take 90% of the civil penalties money resulting from the Gulf Oil Spill. These funds were intended for use in both coastal counties, Mobile and Baldwin. As a result of this action, business leaders were inspired to take a more proactive position in participating in the political process. This newly established effort was created to give our coast a broader voice in state politics and as a way to better ensure the current and future needs and issues of coastal Alabama are met.
​
Coastal 150 gives all regional leaders an opportunity to be involved in the development of our coastal region’s bright future.
