TransparencyEconomic Development agreements are supported by tax dollars and are designed to attract new growth, improve and enhance the local economy, and create jobs in the area.

In recent years the City of Arlington has worked to improve the transparency of its Economic Development program in accordance with the State Comptroller of Public Accounts Transparency Stars program by providing summarized information, a searchable spreadsheet of agreements, and detailed information about each of its agreements. The implementation of this program brings a standard of excellence to the City of Arlington’s reporting on its economic development activities.  To learn more about the Comptroller’s efforts to encourage transparency among local governments, please visit their webpage at www.TexasTransparency.org
