Ed Morrison · BFD Learning Moment: St. Paul’s new business plan
July 27th, 2008
Here’s how St. Paul, MN positioned its new economic development strategy released last week:
If St. Paul is going to become a better place to do business, it’s going to take teamwork.
That will be the underlying theme Mayor Chris Coleman lays out Monday when he releases a six-point economic development plan for the city.
It was devised in conjunction with major St. Paul business organizations and states goals and responsibilities for improving commerce.
Acknowledging that St. Paul can do more to attract new businesses and keep the ones it has, the plan outlines common-sense ways for the city to:
• Cut through some of the red tape.
• Retain businesses and recruit new ones.
• Revitalize downtown as well as neighborhoods
• Ensure the schools are doing their part to build an educated and skilled workforce.
Business plan for improving St. Paul is all about teamwork
You can download a copy of the plan (including an action plan) from this page.
