The Redevelopment Department, along with the Redevelopment Commission, was established by the City Council on December 7, 1999.

The Department is controlled by the five-member Commission (majority appointed by Mayor; remainder appointed by Council) that has the powers and authorities set forth in Indiana Code 36-7-14 for the redevelopment of blighted areas and economic development areas.

The City of Goshen established the Goshen Redevelopment Commission and the Department of Redevelopment to act as a catalyst for new development in targeted areas. This is done through techniques including real estate acquisition, site preparation, environmental remediation and providing public infrastructure to the site. Financing resources generally used are Tax Incremental Financing (TIF) and Redevelopment General Obligation Bonds.

The Goshen Municipal Airport hosts two major aerial events every year: Freedom Fest and Air Supremacy over Goshen.
