Office of Economic Development

March 2020

We have dedicated this edition of our newsletter to COVID-19 information and resources.


During this unprecedented time, the Office of Economic Development wants you to know that we support local businesses. Businesses are a critical part of our community and we value your input and are here to offer assistance to continue business success in James City County. Since 1607 when the Virginia Company arrived to Jamestown Island, business has persevered through highs and lows. We know that County businesses can overcome the challenges of COVID-19. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us if you need assistance. You may email us at yesjcc@jamescitycountyva.gov or give us a call at 757-253-6607.


Sincerely,
Chris, Kate & Laura
