(Baker City (Or.) and Baker County (Or.), 2004-12) Baker City (Or.); Baker County (Or.)
The purpose of this document is to guide the activities of the Baker City/County Economic
Development Council for the years of 2005 to 2007. The Plan should ensure that these activities
are articulated to the residents of Baker City and County.
This Strategic Plan should also serve Baker City, Baker County and the incorporated
communities of Baker County. In addition to coordination with the public sector, the Plan
should provide the private sector with a prioritized list of existing and scheduled activities,
marketing plan, list of targeted industries, and planned strategic investments that will strengthen
the local economy. (From the Plan]

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]
