The North Brevard Economic Development Zone (sometimes referred to as "the Zone" or "NBEDZ" for marketing purposes), is an economic development agency that utilizes a tax increment financing mechanism to generate revenue which is then re-directed in ways to stimulate economic growth for the northern part of Brevard County, Florida. 

​

Since 2011, the Zone has worked to induce more than three dozen projects, many creating hundreds of jobs for North Brevard and the greater Titusville Area.  

​

The governing body of the North Brevard Economic Development Zone (established as the "North Brevard Development District") is a nine-person board of directors, who serve staggered terms of office.  Those terms extend for a period of four years, and they may be re-appointed for consecutive terms.  All board members must reside within the geographic boundaries of the Zone.  Three of the directors are appointed by the  City of Titusville; three directors are appointed by the current District 1 County Commissioner; the remaining three are "joint" appointments, requiring a majority vote of both the Titusville City Council and the Brevard County Board of County Commissioners.
