FOCUS AREA # 4: SUPPORT BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
Aside from hiring people to police neighborhoods, plow snow, and provide other municipal services, townships are not in the business of creating jobs. When it comes to business and economic development, they can only strive to create conditions where business development and job creation are likely to occur.
Cultivating these conditions is important to Millcreek for the sustainability of services and infrastructure supported by taxes that businesses pay, for providing economic opportunities to Millcreek residents, and for contributing Millcreek’ s part to the Erie region’ s economy.
