About the Committee

The Economic Development Action Committee (EDAC) seeks to analyze and address the needs of the existing business community and promote the recruitment of desirable businesses into the City of Goose Creek. The committee fulfills this mission by serving as a forum for promoting economic development and supporting the needs of the business community.

The committee’s basic strategy is to:

Analyze and address the needs of the business community
Spearhead downtown redevelopment
Interact with the members of the business community to get an overall perspective of their businesses
Foster intergovernmental relations concerning economic and industrial development
Develop materials to promote the economic development of the city
Formulate business retention and expansion plans
Develop and implement a business recruitment plan
Develop business incentives for new and existing businesses
Compile information on utilities, land availability, housing, schools, taxes, fees, transportation data, small business loans and grants, and other related economic development data

The committee was formed April 28, 1994, by Goose Creek City Council, in order to serve as an advisory committee to council on issues of economic development.
