The City of Lawrence is thrilled to announce the launch of our new economic development website: GrowLawrence.org. The site reflects our vibrant heartland community, skilled workforce, and strong sense of renewal.
The new website is part of the City’s ongoing work to expand commercial development — and the commercial tax base — in our community. As part of the Prosperity & Economic Security outcome of our strategic plan, our team is working toward commercial development in target industries we believe will thrive in Lawrence, including creative & professional services; research/biomedical; computers, electronics & tech; and advanced materials & green manufacturing.
