Promoting Vibrant & Livable Communities in Southwest Alaska
June 2014  
Greetings!

SWAMC is happy to announce that the 30 day comment period on our latest update of Southwest Alaska Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy has opened. The Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) is the product of an ongoing regional planning process-it is updated every five years and builds upon SWAMC's previous planning efforts. The CEDS is the guiding document for all of SWAMC's efforts and provides staff with the background and direction they need for working with partners, allocating funding, and prioritizing efforts that support economic development in the region.

 

The CEDS draft can be downloaded at:
