Community Survey for Regional Economic Development Strategy
The Town of Mammoth Lakes announced today that a community-wide survey is open for residents and individuals to provide feedback on themes identified in a regional economic development strategic planning process.
The Town of Mammoth Lakes has partnered with several other parties to participate in the creation of a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) for the region. The region’s geography is Alpine, Inyo, and Mono Counties, and the Town of Mammoth Lakes.
A Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) is a formal document that meets the guidelines put forth by the Economic Development Administration (EDA). The EDA defines a CEDS as “a strategy-driven plan for regional economic development. A CEDS is the result of a regionally-owned planning process designed to build capacity and guide the economic prosperity and resiliency of an area or region.” When a region has a CEDS, it is eligible for funding opportunities made available through the EDA’s Public Works and Economic Adjustment Assistance programs to advance recommendations and priorities identified in the CEDS.
