We are so excited to share this program!

Comanche County businesses may be eligible for grants of up to $2,500 to enhance and improve their storefronts along local business corridors.

This program is designed to strengthen the character and beauty of our communities while encouraging business investment and economic growth. By supporting exterior improvements, we aim to create more attractive commercial areas that benefit both businesses and residents.

Eligible businesses are encouraged to apply and take advantage of this opportunity to invest in their property and contribute to the future of Comanche County.

Great News, Comanche County!
We asked, and you answered... now it's our turn to answer you!

Our Community Survey results clearly showed what matters most to our residents, and we're already putting your feedback into action. An impressive 83% of respondents expressed a desire to see Town Clean-Up efforts, and we're excited to share that momentum is already building across Comanche County.

The City of Wilmore will be discussing community clean-up options at its next City Council meeting, and the Comanche County Economic Development Board is on the agenda for the Coldwater City Council meeting on June 8th and the Protection City Council meeting on June 12th to explore partnership opportunities and identify ways we can work together to support community clean-up projects throughout the county.

We are also excited to announce the launch of the Comanche County Facade Improvement Program, designed to support Main Street Beautification and Building Facade Improvements. This new program will help property owners invest in the appearance and vitality of our communities while preserving the unique character of our downtown business districts.

The application is now available on our website (www.comanchecountyecodevo.com), and we look forward to sharing additional details and success stories in the coming weeks.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to complete the survey. Your input is helping guide our priorities, shape our initiatives, and create positive change throughout the county.

Comanche County Economic Development offers expert economic development services to empower business growth through strategic planning and consulting.

We’ve recently completed a series of Community Meetings to gather feedback from residents across Comanche County, and we have a few final clarifying questions remaining.

If you live in Comanche County, would you please take a few minutes to complete this short online survey? There are only 12 questions, and it should take just a few minutes to finish.

Your input helps ensure the final plan reflects the needs, priorities, and ideas of the community. Thank you for taking the time to participate!
