Why should Wyandotte Countians care about economic development?
Economic Development can provide a diverse revenue base to the community, taking some of the tax burden off of the shoulders of the private citizen. Finding businesses that are good partners in the community in which they produce goods and services can be quite beneficial, making a positive impact in the lives of both their employees and the residents.
