What the Jarrell Economic Development Corporation does:

The Jarrell Economic Development Corp (JEDC) works to build and enhance the City of Jarrell economy though a variety of programs. First the JEDC provides economic development leadership through working on recruiting new firms to the community along with maintaining the local businesses that have made Jarrell their home. Secondly the organization provides community programs for planning and supports the building of community infrastructure for the future.

JEDC has lead the community with several goal setting planning events for years that have resulted with the new and first ever community waste water collection system. The hiring of the first City Manager which was the number one goal of one of the community wide planning and goal setting events. An Opportunity Analysis was developed using JEDC funds and other resources plus a class ”A”consultant to help guide the community in economic development planning and infrastructure development.

Recently the JEDC involved its leadership and funds cooperating with the 4B Board to purchase a critical block of property to make possible the first leg of the Jarrell Loop System. This effort required a close relationship with the City of Jarrell and Williamson County.

An important new synergetic effort involves hiring a consultant to study and eventually lower the ISO fire rating for the Jarrell community. This project is in cooperation with the Emergency Services District and the 4B Board. A significant savings will be realized by all the local businesses in their insurance rates and that savings is also available to the community residents.

The JEDC works in concert with the Austin Regional Partnership which is a multimillion dollar effort to attract new primary job companies to the region. This leverages the JEDC funds many fold in a first class high powered national and international recruiting effort.

In the future, the JEDC hopes to continue its work to enhance the City of Jarrell’s efforts to extend water and waste water utilities along the designated areas outlined in the Opportunity Analysis. This will bring more opportunity for the citizens of Jarrell and funds to build a more vibrant community.

JEDC’s role is to enhance Jarrell’s economy now and in the future.
