Novi Makes Economic Development A Priority

To pursue continued growth and success, the City of Novi develops economic development goals and strategies that are reviewed each year. The 2011 initiatives were approved by Novi City council Jan. 10.

2011 looks to be a year focusing on the entrepreneurial spirit of the business community. Novi looks to make more resources available to small business including the Michigan Opportunities and Resources for Entrepreneurs Program (MORE).

Novi will also look to take advantage of Michigan's new film industry. A film office strategy has been developed to scout film locations within the city as well as compiling a location database for film productions.

While looking forward to the new year of business growth, the City of Novi reflects on 2010, which included Novi High School initiating International Baccalaureate coursework, a new public library, and new jobs created within the city.
