Economic Development Strategy

The 2003 -2008 EDS is a five-year strategy that will steer Council’s ongoing commitment to economic development through to 2008.

The Economic Development Strategy has been prepared in partnership with local, state and federal government agencies and other industry and regional stakeholders.

The EDS outlines ways Council and the community will become engaged in facilitating employment and economic growth in the City and is structured into four sections.

1. Economic profile of the City

2. Major Economic Development opportunities

3. Vision, goals and strategic framework

4. Practical strategies

The strategy aims to grow stable, high value local jobs - and to position Blacktown City as a place of choice to work, live and play.

I encourage you to review Council’s strategy and to become actively involved in its implementation.

Mayor Leo Kelly OAM
