Hilltops Economic Development Strategy 2025-2030

Hilltops Council welcomes you!

The Hilltops region is a great place to invest, work, and live, and we want to help you succeed. Hilltops Council’s Economic Development Strategy 2025–2030 (EDS) outlines how to grow our local economy, make it stronger and more resilient for our community.

What is it all about?
We developed this strategy with input from local businesses, government agencies, and the community to make Hilltops an outstanding place for business.

Our plan focuses on four key areas:
* Supporting Local Businesses: We’re building a strong foundation to help businesses grow and thrive.
* Making Investment Easy: We’re creating a friendly environment for investors with transparent processes and helpful support.
* Growing Our Economy: We’re working to diversify and strengthen our economy across many different industries.
* Developing a Skilled Workforce: We’re preparing our community with the skills needed for future jobs.

If you’re a new resident, business owner, or investor, you’ll find a supportive council ready to help you grow. The Hilltops offer a wonderful opportunity in a regional setting to have a fruitful quality of life with excellent opportunities for business development and innovation.
