The Economic Development Division is one of five divisions within the Community Development Department, together with Planning, Building & Safety, Code Enforcement and Business License, that works together to ensure Bell Gardens residents and business owners have all the possible resources to grow and prosper. 

The City of Bell Gardens understands how important economic development is for a City’s sustainability and success.  It is the mission of the City of Bell Gardens to create opportunities that will stimulate economic growth by attracting, sustaining and expanding a variety of businesses that serve both the local community and the region. 

Bell Gardens aims to serve all of its stakeholders (i.e., businesses, residents, non-profits, public agencies, etc.) by seeking programs and development opportunities that strengthen its commercial and industrial sectors.  In addition, the Economic Development Division strives to provide access to state, national and global programs that may provide further economic opportunities, especially for lower-income residents and business owners seeking economic equity.

Please feel free to reach us by phone or come visit us at our public counter.  We look forward to assisting you.
