Mission Statement:
The mission of the Glencoe EDA is to sustain and promote industry and commerce in the city of Glencoe, improve economic opportunities for businesses and residents, maintain and create jobs, improve the quality of life, and promote a healthier community fueled by the diversity and culture of its residents.
Statement of Values and Purpose:
It is the mandate of the Glencoe “Economic Development Authority” to consider all matters of economic development. Our EDA through “Servant Leadership” is prepared to assist entrepreneurs, businesses and industries to expand or locate into our city.
Our EDA seeks to ensure long-term viability in Glencoe by creating opportunities for economic and community development. It is intended to be a vehicle to research, initiate, incubate, develop, fund, manage and stimulate projects, programs, not for profits and business, thereby empowering the community with independence and control over its own destiny/future.
The Glencoe EDA collaborates with local, regional, and state partners to encourage the expansion and diversification of Glencoe’s economy.
