About the EDC

The purpose of the Economic Development Commission (EDC) is to plan and implement sustainable economic and community development in Woodstock, to:

  • Develop and grow a sustainable tourism economy that provides a positive experience to residents, visitors and merchants.

  • Grow and diversify the resident population to enrich the community and the quality of life. 

​To plan and implement sustainable economic and community development in Woodstock, we undertake the following activities:
 

  1. Encouraging and helping existing and new businesses prosper, creating more job opportunities, becoming more environmentally conscious,
     

  2. Making this a livable and welcoming community for a diverse, multi-generational population,
     

  3. Promoting a welcoming, sustainable Woodstock area,
     

  4. Improving and making the best use of land, buildings and other physical infrastructure, and
     

  5. Awarding grants that align with the five main initiatives of the Commission: affordable housing, childcare, marketing of Woodstock, downtown beautification and community events.

The members of the EDC are Jon Spector (Chair), Joe DiNatale (Vice Chair), Marion Abrams, Greta Calabrese, Deborah Green, Michael Green, Larry Niles and Todd Ullman.

As a volunteer citizen-led Commission we welcome feedback from residents of Woodstock and visitors. Feel free to submit your comments on our comments page or send us an email at woodstockedc@gmail.com
