The Leesburg Economic Development Commission's mission is to ensure the economic vitality and stability of the Town of Leesburg. The commission works to retain/expand existing businesses, attract/recruit desirable new businesses and enhance economic activities that will benefit local businesses and residents.
The commission consists of seven members who are either residents of the town, town property owners, business owners or those employed in the town and appointed by the Town Council. The Council appoints one of its members to the commission. Representatives of the Airport Commission and Planning Commission are also members of the LEDC, and the Director of Economic Development and Tourism, Betsy Fields, serves as the staff liaison to the commission. The LEDC meets on the 3rd Wednesday of every month at 7:00 p.m. in the BP Amoco Room of the Leesburg Town Hall.
