The city of Broken Arrow has developed an Internal Economic Development Team (IEDT.) This team is comprised of City staff and will work in conjunction with the Broken Arrow Economic Development Corporation.

The IEDT will provide coordination between the City staff and BAEDC while expediting economic development actions inside the City. The team will take the actions necessary to bring to a successful conclusion those actions. In most cases this will include negotiation of a contract between the City and the business, financial assistance, assistance in planning, assistance in zoning, assistance during the construction process and, as required, post-startup assistance.

The team will have the capability to provide all required information on potential sites, assist with incentive programs (Federal, State and Local), provide information on bank contacts, assist with the zoning, planning and construction issues and will also provide, through coordination with the BAEDC, City resources for information necessary to recruit businesses in today’s highly competitive market.

Norman Stephens will lead the team IEDT. Stephens will also serve as the City’s ombudsman for all issues associated with development in the City.

To contact the IEDT, call 259-2410.
