Economic Development Commission

The Butler Economic Development Commission (EDC) is responsible for reviewing petitions for Economic Revitalization Area designations and Economic Development Target Area designations. This designation is the first step for a real estate or personal property tax abatement. The EDC makes a recommendation to the Common Council concerning the designation and the tax abatement.

The EDC meets on an as-need basis. The Commission posts notice of all its meetings 48 hours in advance in the Butler Post Office, Butler City Utility Office, and Butler City Hall. These meetings are open to the public.
