Comment on FY 24 Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy Goals and Actions
The Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) is the federally mandated, regionally owned planning process designed to build capacity and guide the economic prosperity and resiliency of Greater Philadelphia. Regions must update their strategy at least every five years to qualify for U.S. Economic Development Administration (EDA) financial assistance.
Based on information collected during CEDS Committee workshops in April 2023, the new EDA CEDS Guidelines, and current trends, DVRPC staff have developed Draft Goals and Actions for the FY 24 Growing Greater Philadelphia CEDS. These goals and actions will serve as the foundation of the regional economic development framework. To review, please visit the CEDS Committee webpage. General comments on the Draft Goals and Actions can be sent to Karen Cilurso at kpcilurso@dvrpc.org. Comments are welcome through August 21, 2023.
An online workshop will also be held on August 22, 2023, from 10:00-11:15 am, to review the Draft Goals and Actions and to identify potential projects/programs that work toward implementation. Registration is required.
