The Community Relations and Economic Development Department was established under Mayor Jim Brainard to manage and facilitate the public communications and Economic Development of the City of Carmel, Indiana. City employees work hard each day to ensure that Carmel is the best place to live, work, and raise a family. Creating a strong sense of community is a large part of the quality of life experienced each day by our residents and businesses.
Feeling a part of a community includes knowing what is going on, what events, programs and services are available and what upcoming projects are being planned or discussed. It is the responsibility of the Department to make sure that these messages get out to the community in many different ways.
