Purpose
The Economic Development Committee works to foster an environment that attracts and retains high-quality commercial and industrial businesses within the Village. By supporting responsible economic growth, the Committee aims to increase local sales and property tax revenues, create new employment opportunities, diversify the local economy, and strengthen the community’s overall image — all for the benefit of Village residents.
Committee members serve as ambassadors to the business community and as liaisons to the Village. In this role, they provide insight and feedback to the Village Board regarding the impact of economic development initiatives, policies, and regulations on local businesses.
The Economic Development Committee (EDC) is a voice for businesses in the community. The Committee assists the Village Board by providing the business perspective on policies, business-related regulations and projects aimed to grow the local economy.
The EDC promotes our business community with annual events including the Business of the Year Award. In addition, the EDC participates in ribbon cutting ceremonies and features businesses in the Spotlight on Business section of the Village newsletter and website.
Staff continually works with the Hanover Park EDC regarding development updates and business retention, expansion, and attraction proposals.
The Committee regularly hosts educational and networking opportunities for local businesses with regional partners, including the Bartlett Area Chamber, the Northwest Hispanic Chamber, and the Women's Business Development Center.
Visit Community and Economic Development's Events page for upcoming events and recordings of past events.
The Hanover Park EDC is always looking for suggestions from local businesses and participation in promotional events and activities! Please call the Community Development department at 630-823-5780 if you would like more information about the Committee.
