North San Diego County faces a fundamental question about its future, how do historically separate communities come together to plan and support the development of a healthy, vibrant regional economy. The process to create this regional Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) was a critical element in continuing this discussion and developing an initial road map for regional economic development. This CEDS process brought together the region’s key private sector employers and regional policy makers to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the regional economy, identify priorities for the future, and develop strategies for meeting and tracking those regional economic priorities. While this CEDS is not meant to be the final word in North San Diego County’s regional economic development efforts it does represent an important breakthrough in bringing together the region’s critical voices from industry, education, infrastructure and local and regional government.
A CEDS is defined by the US Economic Development Administration as: “..a comprehensive plan that is created through a process that brings together public and private sector stakeholders to provide a regional economic roadmap to diversify and strengthen a regional economy.”
