Economic Development

The SRDC provides economic development services through a grant with the U.S. Department of Commerce, Economic Development Administration, (EDA). SRDC staff are available to assist communities with applications for funding, administration of community revolving loan funds, business development and other services. Funds for business development purposes are also available through the SRDC's Revolving Loan Fund (RLF). SRDC currently administers local revolving loan funds for Jackson and Cottonwood County as well as the City of Heron Lake. 

Economic Development staff also collaborates with other local economic developers through the Southwest Economic Development Professionals, (SW ED Pros).
