     ECONOMIC
           DEVELOPMENT
        OVERVIEW
             The Economic Development department strives to constantly protect and grow the economic
             well-being of North Richland Hills.  The department does this by attracting high quality
             business development and employment opportunities, facilitating the success of existing
             businesses, protecting and increasing property values, and revitalizing aging areas of the
             City. The department promotes balanced development, puts forward a pro-active business
             image and differentiates North Richland Hills as a progressive and diversified community.
             The three overriding strategies for the Economic Development Department are: redeveloping
             and reusing vacant and underutilized properties; promoting a positive business climate; and
             developing and promoting an attractive, diversified and thriving community.
