Serving the Business Community

With its diversified membership of volunteer business leaders, the EDC is well equipped with the background and skills necessary for the program to operate at its highest possible level. Each is committed to the EDC's goals of identifying the needs, wants, and concerns of local businesses, and to the improvement of services among business, government, and the community.

When requested, the EDC has a Task Force available to meet with local business owners to discuss specific needs or problems. In many cases a better understanding of city regulations provides an on-the-spot solution. But whenever necessary, the EDC Task Force responds by communicating information directly to the proper city departments or staff along with recommendations for action.

Finally, the EDC is continually developing new ideas and programs and expanding its communications network within the local community as well as with other city, state, and federal agencies.
