  • A contract with Integrated Communication Strategies includes a scope of work to engage with the local economic partners that resulting in a two-year Economic Development Action Plan. The process launched in July and included: 
    • Conducting interviews with key stakeholders.   
    • Accessing and supplying data with analysis.
    • Development of communication assets.
  • The CCA (Community Choice Aggregation) will be presented to the Board in October at which time there will be direction on next steps.
  • Subregional conveners (Nevada County Economic Resource Council and Tahoe Prosperity) were selected by the Community Economic Resiliency Fund (CERF) to reach out to disinvested communities and convene leaders to identify high priority projects for Nevada County.

Next Steps

Plans for Q4 (October - December 2023) will include:

  • The Economic Development action plan process shall:
    • Provide an Opportunities, Assets and Constraints (OAC) analysis with recommendations.
    • Convene partner meetings to align the group on findings and actions.
    • Provide a draft action plan for review.
  • The Program Manager applied to serve on the Community Economic Resiliency Fund (CERF) leadership team which will be announced in November.
