We work directly with the town administration and the Community Development Corporation to promote Newmarket to existing and potential businesses. A key element in attracting a new business is the success of businesses that already exist in Newmarket.

Supporting local businesses will help attract new ones and help reduce the proportion of taxes currently levied on residential housing. Businesses require little in the way of services, but provide much in the way of wages and tax revenues.

The NBA is also active in the local Seacoast community! This year, we helped sponsor the 2013 Family Fun Walk, which benefited the Newmarket Community Education Partnership and we are also working with the Newmarket Recreation Department to promote more community-based activities together.
