Mesa County's "Open for Business" initiative aims to boost the local economy by encouraging development and business growth. The "Open for Business" initiative consists of several steps that will make Mesa County more business friendly:

• Lowering Taxes and Fees
• Streamlining the Development Process 
• Expediting Capital Projects 
• Adopting a "Developers Bill of Rights" 
• Supporting Existing Local Businesses and Enterprise

MESA COUNTY’S “OPEN FOR BUSINESS” VALUES:

• The Mesa County government and its staff work for and serve you—our taxpayers.
• The county should assist—not hinder—citizens in meeting their goals.
• Mesa County strives to minimize bureaucracy, as well as taxes and fees that hamper economic development and free-market forces.
• When you contact Mesa County, you should expect a return contact within one business day.
