The City of Fayetteville's vision includes a vibrant downtown and a strong local economy. The activities included in this section focus on small business development activities with a concentration on economic development activities in the downtown area in support of the Fayetteville Renaissance Plan and the City's redevelopment plan areas throughout the community.
Economic Development
The Development Division provides economic development assistance throughout Winston-Salem through various programs that aim to promote business vitality, job creation, and an increased tax base. Ongoing projects are located in:
- Brookwood (Airport) Business Park
- Downtown business district
- Union Cross Business Park
- Wake Forest Innovation Quarter
- Other areas
Target Area Business Assistance Program
The Target Area Business Assistance program is designed to provide incentives to encourage businesses to locate within distressed areas of the city and to create job opportunities. Minimum qualifications for the program are that:
- The Company creates or retains at least four permanent jobs
- The Company invests at least two dollars of private fund for every one dollar of city funds requested
- The Funds are necessary for the company to move into or expand within the target area
The funds may be used for site, facility or structural improvements, facade or signage and the purchase of capital equipment. The resulting revitalization will, in turn, increase the tax base within these areas of the city.
All assistance must be approved by the City Council following a public hearing. The assistance may be given as a loan or grant, which is determined by the city on a case-by-case analysis. The maximum assistance for any project is $50,000 total. Assistance may be based upon job creation or tax base investment.
