The list provides the property dimensions, sale/lease price, and contact information.

The Economic Development Department serves as a one stop information shop for federal, states and county programs that aid businesses. The department also disperses information about finance, exporting, employee training and tax incentive programs. Assistance is offered to companies participating in these government programs throughout the entire process.
