Corona Economic Development

The City of Corona Economic Development Division is responsible for attracting new business to Corona and for retaining existing businesses.

The major objectives of Corona's economic development division are:

• Seek and attract quality businesses to locate and expand their sales, facilities, and employment.
• Conduct business communications, outreach, and retention activities.
• Redevelop and revitalize blighted commercial sites.
• Guide establishment of a diversified local business base to provide growing sales and property tax revenues to the City to support municipal operations.

The pro-business attitude of the Economic Development Program is reflected in  the Team Corona concept. City officials actively  work to make the transition of a business a smooth one by exploring incentives,  site selection, and other avenues of support. When appropriate, the Team is  expanded to include the California Trade and Commerce Agency, Riverside County  Economic Development Agency, Inland Empire Economic Partnership, Southern  California   Edison, the Gas Company, and the Workforce Development Board.

Use of Team Corona, with the Economic Development Division participating as  "first contact" for the developer/business owner, brings new businesses to  Corona every year and retains the companies that are already here.

Before you enter into any purchase, lease, or rental agreements, check with  the Planning Department to verify whether or not your proposed business is  allowed in the zone you are considering. Please contact thePlanning Department at (951) 736-2262 with your  questions regarding zoning.
