The mission of the Shoreview Economic Development Authority is to facilitate economic growth by supporting existing businesses, foster reinvestment in residential neighborhoods and commercial areas, and promote the creation of new business, employment and housing opportunities in order to sustain and enhance the economic vitality and quality of life in the community.

Strategic objectives

• Maintaining quality neighborhoods
• Preserving housing stock conditions
• Providing a variety of housing choices
• Retaining business and promoting expansion
• Supporting redevelopment of older commercial areas

Summary
