Contributing to Flagstaff’s Economic Vitality
About Us
We make Flagstaff an Ideal Place for Business, Residents, and Visitors
What We Do
The City of Flagstaff Economic Development Offices are a part of our Community Investment Department. How do these offices fit into the grand scheme of things?
Our Community Investment Division includes Community Design and Redevelopment and Economic Development, Parking, Beautification. Here’s a summary of what they do:
- Community Design and Redevelopment handles historic preservation, redevelopment, parking, and public art.
- Economic Development focuses on business attraction, retention, and expansion.
All of these entities may seem unrelated, yet they are united by one common theme: Each faces the public. Quite often, they’re the first face of Flagstaff.
Uniting these offices creates a strategic advantage, because interdisciplinary teams bring out the best in all of us. No matter where we work, we share the same goal:
Make Flagstaff an ideal place for business, residents, and visitors
