VIEWPOINT | Growth incentives matter to Sioux Falls and all of South Dakota
Guest column by Scott Lawrence
Economic development organizations like the Greater Sioux Falls Chamber of Commerce and the Sioux Falls Development Foundation focus largely on creating opportunities for job growth, business success and expansion of the tax base of the region. They create opportunities for companies already in the region and those wanting to establish a presence here for the purpose of creating quality jobs and expanding our property and sales tax base.
These organizations acquire land, build infrastructure, prepare industrial sites, provide pro-business advocacy and business development opportunities, so that when companies are ready to invest, our community is ready to compete. They create an environment that welcomes expansion and new development for the greater good of the region.
