Recognizing that existing companies create 80% of all new jobs, and acknowledging the best salesman for a community is a business owner or company executive who has already found the area to be a profitable place to do business, the Council is committed to the retention and expansion of current businesses. The Council works with existing businesses on growth and expansion needs and provides support and consultation to assure that businesses in the area remain viable.
