The TVCDC's business development committee has been very active in the development of the Tobacco Valley Business Park. Over the last year the Tobacco Valley was able to complete the preliminary plat review from the County. They started the marketing plan and have actively pursued expansion/relocating businesses and new development. The TVCDC committee worked with the Lincoln County Commissioners to create a Tax Increment Finance Industrial District (TIFID). The Commissioners selected a five person board to oversee the newly developed TIFID; Mike Henry; Chair, Craig Dyk, Vice Chair, Buck Schermerhorn, Chris Fox, Dorothy Eiseman. The TVCDC will remain an active partner in the Business Park and continue the administration of the USDA Rural Business Enterprise Grant.
The TVCDC will need to rejuvenate the Business Development Committee now that the Tobacco Valley Business Park will be overseen by the TIFID Board. 

Other concerns/opportunities for the Business Development Committee:
  • Lack of business incentives to move to the valley
    • Not a clear understanding on what tax incentives there are
  • Available workforce and cost of housing
  • Strong civic organizations
  • New High School promotes community spirit and investment
  • Construction growth
    • Construction based companies are benefiting
    • Cost of land increasing due to the residential growth
      • May cause a problem for retail locations and affordability
  • Business Park has year round County road access
  • Support from County and Town officials

 

The Business Park is a 12 lot ...
