Plainview gets down to work
on growth issues in 2010!

Plainview's Economic Development Authority (EDA) has completed a action-oriented strategic planning process. The EDA will be implementing its 2010 workplan by: 1) exploring housing incentives as a way to increase residential growth; 2) strengthening existing businesses through a "Buy Local" public education campaign and investigating the feasibility of a "Business Incubator" for existing and start-up businesses; 3) assisting the city as it works to increase public awareness of its services; and 4) marketing Plainview's diverse business community to a regional and statewide audience.

If you want more information, have comments or want to be learn more about how you can be part of this effort, contact EDA Coordinator, Judith Jordan at 507-534-2264.
