“This new guide captures Westchester’s many distinct advantages,” said Westchester County Executive Robert P. Astorino. “Government can’t create private sector jobs but it can provide a pro-growth environment by keeping taxes and spending low, using the tools at its disposal like Industrial Development Agency incentives and getting the word out that Westchester is open for business.”
Since Astorino took office in 2010, nearly 40,000 new private sector jobs have been created and companies, such as Pepsi, IBM, Xylem and Regeneron, have recommitted to the county, reinvesting billions of dollars in expansion and new jobs.
The guide was developed by the Business Council of Westchester in collaboration with Today Media and the Westchester County Office of Economic Development. Advertising sales paid for the production and there is no cost to county taxpayers.
