Division Overview
The San Benito County Economic Development Division is designed for the well-being and prosperity of San Benito County. Through collaboration and partnership with many local organizations, we strengthen economic development to ensure a diversified and healthy economy. They are creating better-paying jobs, reducing poverty, and increasing the revenue base encouraging business expansion to ensure economic vitality. Contributions to Economic Development organizations are set aside as annual contributions if appropriated by the Board. The Board retains the authority to reduce its allocation to these outside agencies upon findings that internal countywide priority programs would otherwise require program reductions.
