The Department of Economic Development was established in 2010 to facilitate job growth through the expansion of existing business and the recruitment of new firms to Jeffersonville and the region.

The Department of Economic Development manages the city's tax abatement program, permitted under Indiana Code 6-1.1-12.1, with local policy established by City Council ordinance 1996-OR-084.
