Business Retention and Expansion |
|
As part of North Middlesex's regular outreach to business, we conduct regular Business Retention and Expansion services (BR+E). This service allows your business to provide regular feedback to the municipality to let us know how we can make doing business easier. This is also an opportunity for us to let you know about programs and funding that might help your business grow. Our BR+E program operates on a rotating basis but we are happy to meet with you anytime to discuss your business needs. Please call or email the Economic Development Officer to set up a time that works for you. |

Investment Attraction |

Our development charges are competitive and undergo regular reviews to ensure that we are offering the best value to investors and developers. Our low housing costs mean that our employees or families can enjoy more for less. |
