About Us

The Economic Development Authority facilitates economic development activity to maximize use of industrial and commercial land. This enables the city to help the workforce develop to its fullest potential and minimize burden on the individual taxpayer. The EDA takes into account the need to preserve the social, environmental, architectural and cultural fabric of the community.

The activities of the EDA are governed by a seven-person Board of Directors. Directors are City residents appointed by Winchester City Council to a term of four years. Our Directors bring expertise to our developmental activities by representing a wide range of professional backgrounds. The EDA meets every Third Tuesday of each month, 8:00 am, Zuckerman Conference Room, Rouss City Hall, 15 North Cameron Street.
