The purpose of the Ravalli County Economic Development Authority is to promote, stimulate, develop and advance the general welfare, commerce, economic development and prosperity of our local citizens, Ravalli County, and the State of Montana. A primary goal of the RCEDA is to create the infrastructure for a knowledge-based business community in the Bitterroot Valley that helps existing and new businesses turn information and innovation into opportunity. Ravalli County Economic Development Authority ( RCEDA ) is a Port Authority with 501 ( c ) ( 3 ) tax status. Created by the Ravalli County Commissioners in 1997, RCEDA is governed by seven Commissioners appointed by the County Commissioners. RCEDA is funded in large part through the Ravalli County General Fund. Recently this funding has been augmented by a grant from the City of Hamilton as well as private sector participants. This funding has allowed the organization to mature and demonstrate the meaning and work of economic development through action and accomplishments.
