WHAT WE DO

The Alliance for Economic Development of Oklahoma City was formed in 2011 to better coordinate land, incentives and economic tools that make Oklahoma City even more attractive to companies and developers. This includes the coordination, management, planning and/or implementation of:

  • The city’s general obligation limited tax bond program

  • Tax increment financing districts

  • The city’s retail strategy and incentives

  • City and urban renewal redevelopment programs

  • Identification and development of job creation sites

  • Public-private redevelopment opportunities

 We utilize several economic tools to create the best types and levels of support necessary.
