NEWS

We are interested in developing a Land Inventory of industrial, commercial, and agriculture land that site selectors and developers could access as part of their search process.  Having a database of potential land for sale/lease at our fingertips allows us to respond quickly to development inquiries. If you are a landowner that would like to register your land for this program, please complete the form or contact our Community Development Coordinator for more details.
