Economic Development

We hope this page will help you navigate any business or development questions you may have. Economic development covers a variety of topics, but the primary goal is to provide information that can help recruit and assist businesses that are interested in locating or expanding in Scappoose.

Businesses that provide well paying jobs are especially important in that they bring additional dollars to the community that can support the growth of other businesses, provide needed goods and services to the citizens of Scappoose, and can provide additional tax dollars to support city services and schools.

Currently, new businesses in Scappoose are mostly locating in the NE area of town near the airport. In addition, marketing efforts are focused on turning vacant land lots into viable developments. If developed, these lots would provide jobs, services, and additional tax revenue to the City.
