The Bullhead Regional Economic Development Authority (EDA) is a non-profit agency working with the City of Bullhead City to direct and implement the economic development activities of our city. It is governed by a 25-member board representing many different economic sectors of the community with the daily operations under the guidance of an executive director and support staff.
The prime objective of the EDA is to attract new businesses to the area and assist with the retention and expansion of existing businesses. This is accomplished by ensuring that all of the incentives offered by the state, county and city are made available to all who qualify.

Our long-term goals are to increase employment opportunities, population and tax base, to strategically position communities and businesses to better compete in the global economy and to facilitate the creation of high- paying jobs for our workforce.
