2018 RCEDC Annual Meeting and Progress Report

by admin

RCEDC celebrated its 35th year of providing economic development services in Racine County

During 2017, RCEDC secured 22 company expansion and recruitment projects that, when fully accomplished, will result in new tax revenue for Racine County and employment opportunities for its residents. These successes were accomplished with the assistance of nearly $275 million in grants and incentives and $10 million in low-interest loans from RCEDC’s finance division, Business Lending Partners (BLP).

This Annual Report features the communities that our staff served and the projects that, when completed, will result in thousands of new full-time jobs.
