The Economic Development program for the City of West Richland is a component of the Community Development Department.

Program Goal

The program goal is to improve the city’s economic vitality and competitiveness by investing our time and resources wisely as we implement council’s Economic Development Plan and strategic focus areas. We seek to leverage limited resources through partnerships, grants, and investments from public and private entities; through building solid and trusting relationships and a “customer friendly” environment with commercial and industrial developers; and through public involvement and two-way communications.
