About Us

MISSION

The primary objective of the Iosco County Economic 

Development Commission (Iosco EDC) is to secure 

and maintain jobs in Iosco and Alcona Counties by providing business loans.

REVOLVING LOAN FUNDS

The Iosco County EDC was originally established to 

address economic challenges created by the 

1993 closure of Wurtsmith Air Force Base.  


RLF 2:   The original revolving loan fund "RLF", RLF 2, that 

started it all was funded with an U.S. Economic 

Development Administration (EDA) grant to aid 

the region that was negatively 

impacted by the base closure.

RLF 3:   RLF 3 was originally funded with a USDA grant, this revolving loan fund is intended for small business loans under $50,000 

to be used for equipment, inventory or working capital.



RLF 4:   RLF 4 was originally funded in 2020 with an EDA CARES ACT grant to assist small and medium size businesses in Iosco and 

Alcona Counties that were negatively impacted by COVID-19.
