Economic Development

The Town of Miami welcomes economic development. We envision an approach that begins with supporting local businesses, partnering to address commercial blight, and recruiting and encouraging new business in Miami.


Support for economic development includes the following:

  • Improving transparency and understanding of the business license and inspection process.
  • Learning about the challenges and concerns of local business owners.
  • Providing residents and tourists with information about local businesses in Miami.
