Taylor is a proactive community with numerous assets that attract families, tourists, and
businesses. The location - 25-miles northeast of Austin, dedicated workforce, historic downtown, and available land are a few reasons why Taylor is an exceptional place.
While Taylor has had
momentum, it is important to create a new economic development plan that examines past successes and failures, defines the community’s economic vision, considers Austin’s population projections and economic
plans, and incorporates local leaders’ goals.
The City of Taylor, Texas, hired AngelouEconomics (AE) to lead the city through a six-month economic development project. The project will result in a five-year plan for sparking new economic growth in the city. The economic development project will be a component of the Comprehensive Plan, funded by the Office of Rural Community Affairs (ORCA). The Reports page of this Web site describes the project.
Over the next few months, AngelouEconomics will work with Taylor citizens and business leaders. AE will prepare recommendations, working in collaboration with Wilbur Smith, to aid in growing Taylor’s economy.
This is an exciting time for Taylor citizens and businesses. We invite you to click through this Web site to learn more about these projects and how you can get involved. This Web site will
be constantly updated with news and reports so we encourage you to visit often.
