Hutto Area Chamber of Commerce Announces New Downtown Chamber Headquarters in Partnership with Hutto Economic Development Corporation
HUTTO, Texas — The Hutto Area Chamber of Commerce and the Hutto Economic Development Corporation (HEDC) are pleased to announce plans for a new, permanent Chamber headquarters in the heart of Historic Downtown Hutto, alongside the HEDC's acquisition of the Chamber's longtime building on East Street.

The HEDC's acquisition of the East Street building supports its ongoing focus on revitalizing Old Town, opening the door for the property's next chapter while the Chamber moves forward with plans to build a new headquarters. The future Chamber building will serve as a welcoming front door for the business community, providing modern office space, meeting facilities, and a hub for networking, economic development, and community engagement.

"This project reflects our shared commitment to supporting local businesses, strengthening our downtown, and creating a space that will serve our members and the community for generations to come," said Tim Jordan, President of the Hutto Area Chamber of Commerce.

“We truly appreciate the Chamber's partnership on this project. Revitalizing Old Town works best when we're moving in the same direction, and this project is a good example of that," said Caitlin Morales, Vice Chair of the Hutto Economic Development Corporation.

Together, the Chamber and Hutto EDC see these projects as complementary steps in a longer-term effort to revitalize Old Town Hutto, supporting entrepreneurship, business recruitment, and community collaboration.

Additional project details, timelines, and opportunities for community involvement will be announced as planning progresses.
