Conroe Industrial Development Corporation

The Conroe Industrial Development Corporation (CIDC) is a Type B non-profit development corporation operating under Texas Local Government Code Chapters 501, 502 and 505. The corporation is operated under the supervision of the Conroe City Council and acts to promote economic development in the City of Conroe. Revenue from a one-half cent sales tax levied by the City for the benefit of the corporation provides incentive funding to attract new and expanded business in the City and has also funded the development of the CIDC-owned Conroe Park North industrial park. More recently, the CIDC has undertaken a project to develop the R. A. "Mickey" Deison Technology Park on 250 acres adjacent to the Lone Star Executive Airport.

The CIDC works in partnership with the CEDC to attract and retain business in the City of Conroe and is governed by a seven-member board of directors.

VGXI project in Deison Technology Park

“I cannot tell you how many people in Conroe have told us, ‘VGXI is exactly what we've been searching for to lead Deison Technology Park.’ We could not have accomplished this without the CEDC staff. Conroe has been so welcoming. It fills us with pride.”

Dorothy Peterson, VGXI Chief Operating Officer
