Attract New Business/Industry and Grow Existing Businesses

What do we want for Airdrie?

To increase non-residential tax revenue, with a target tax base of 75% residential, 25% non-residential to balance the needs and wants of our growing community.

What are the first steps to get us there?

• Council will choose a focus that will give Airdrie a competitive advantage.
• Locating more business in Airdrie will shift the tax base away from reliance on residential taxation.
• It will support residents’ needs, both financial and social.
• Last October, Council adopted Airdrie’s Economic Strategy 2018-2028.
