A Message From the Director

Dear Friends,

Even as there are signs that the worst of the economic recession is behind us, these are still tough times for many of our city's businesses.  That is why OEWD continues to invest in local stimulus efforts.  From connecting businesses to cost-saving tax credit programs, to implementing job creation initiatives, to facilitating the development of business improvement districts, we are committed to helping businesses succeed.  In this edition of the OEWD Quarterly Newsletter, we provide an update on these and other important economic development efforts, as well as information on how you can benefit from these opportunities.

- Michael Cohen
Director, Office of Economic and Workforce Development
