Community & Economic Development

Economic Development Department

EODD’s Economic Development Department provides regional planning and development assistance for economic expansion in the seven county district.

The Economic Development Department works with local governments, businesses, industries, chambers of commerce and other agencies to expand present industry and create new business.

Communities are further assisted in developing “package” financing/funding sources for economic development. EODD will help communities and businesses complete grant and loan applications, or those who are required to prepare a continuing economic development program. Studies of resources, labor forces, and other activities can be provided.

The Community Development Department provides various services to local units of governments in the seven county area, including:

  • Information regarding census data and demographics
  • CDBG grant applications and administration
  • Assist Communities with Capitol Improvement Planning
  • Mapping Services
  • Assistance to communities participating in the Main Street and Century Communities Programs
