Strategic/Economic Development Plan
The City's Strategic/Economic Development Plan was adopted by the City in May of 2015. The Plan prioritizes issues and initiatives upon which the City will focus its resources in upcoming years to support existing business growth and attract new businesses into the City, while maintaining current services and infrastructure for residents.
The six goals established in the 2015 Strategic/Economic Development Plan include:
GOAL 1: Economic Development
Enhance the City's tax base, support the growth of businesses, increase local shopping and dining opportunities, diversify the City's labor market, expand housing options, and create attractive gathering places.
