(Norwood, Ohio,7/29/2020) The City of Norwood has partnered with HCDC to assist with economic development efforts in the City. HCDC will focus on optimizing economic development opportunities by focusing on projects currently underway such as PLK Communities’ mixed-use development on the former U.S. Playing Card site, serving on the Steering Committee for the Montgomery Road Corridor Study, and participating in a business visitation program to identify the needs of businesses already located in Norwood. The contract begins on August 1. 

“We are very pleased to bring HCDC on as the City of Norwood’s go-to resource and main contact for economic development at this time,” said Norwood Mayor Schneider. “HCDC brings the immediate experience, relationships, and tools to the City that are needed right now and we are confident that HCDC will be a huge asset to attracting new businesses to the City of Norwood.”
