Economic Development Office
The Economic Development Partnership
In 1994, the City and the Chamber entered into a
formal
agreement to hire an Economic Development Coordinator. The
Economic Coordinator is available to act as an advocate for
businesses with planning and permit issues, land and lease
acquisition, and expansion or relocation questions. Prospective
new companies have benefited from the hospitality and services
of this office.
