Small Business Grant Program

Economic Development Strategy

The purpose of economic development is to enhance the business environment for a range of business, and their leaders, managers and employees. To do this, economic developers seek ways to strengthen the community’s capacity for business attraction, retention, and expansion, and strengthen the community’s tax base. As we will discuss in this report, all of these goals require the creation of a place that will attract people and give them a high quality of life – business leaders, entrepreneurs, residents, families, visitors, and workers.

The purpose of this study is to use data analysis and engagement with community leaders and stakeholders to understand Greenville’s economic and housing status. This information then will inform the development of strategies in support of economic development and continued growth of Greenville’s economy as the Town exits the Act 47 process.

Economic Development

Greenville Economic Development Strategies

As Greenville comes toward the exit stage of its Act 47 oversight, it is important to develop economic strategies which the Town leaders, residents, partners, and businesses can take forward to strengthen Greenville’s economic status into the future.

Greenville's community game is strong.

 

The Greenville Borough's sense of community is its strongest asset. The community is strong through partnership between active citizens, community organizations, it's institutions, business community and municipal government. Here are some of the partners that make us who we are.

 

 

The people in Greenville joined forces and in a 4 day period built a new playground in Riverside Park, with over 1,000 volunteers. The Committee to Promote the Greenville Area recently completed fundraising and installed a new community sign announcing public events in front of the municipal building. The Women's Action Group sponsored the downtown mural.  Three new businesses have opened in the last 6 months in the downtown. Our local fire department maintains a Class 4 ISO fire rating, which affords homeowners and businesses a lower insurance rate. Our biggest event is Heritage Days, the first weekend in July, with thousands of folks coming to Riverside Park for demonstrations and a car show on Main Street. It is also worthy to note that since 1929 Greenville has been the host community for the Greenville Symphony Orchestra with concerts at Thiel's Passavant Center. Greenville Area Community Theatre welcomes all volunteers and features many talented individuals.
