Abstract:
This Economic Development Strategic plan recognizes that there are generally two
levels of community and economic development activities: 1) more traditional economic
development activities such as business recruitment, business retention, and community
development (generally located in Baker City Hall), and 2) supplemental community
development activities such as downtown development, tourism promotion, arts and
cultural development, and advocacy for health care (generally located outside of City
Hall). This plan respects all of these disciplines as important and integral to the future of
Baker County. [From the Plan]
