Economic Development by definition is 

the creation of wealth from which community benefits are realized.

​

True economic development is more than business recruitment and business retention.  It is community development.  It is creating opportunities.  It is knowing what it takes for a prospective resident or business to want to come to our community.

​

It is setting ourselves apart, and casting a wide net of services and resources to the community.  It is working together, and YOU are an economic developer also.

The video tells the story, and was highlighted at our Small Business Expo.  We also highlighed our businesses and let them tell their stories.  We invite you to watch those.  They are powerful.
