02 Statewide Economic Development Infrastructure Plan

Infrastructure Planning Alignment + Integration As part of the identification of infrastructure, it was important to recognize the circle of influence economic development and infrastructure have on the State economy, and how planning alignment and integration of plan recommendations need to focus on the areas where the most influence and impact can be made. Infrastructure is impacted by many levels of government including the federal government, State, planning districts, Tribal Nations, and local governments, in addition to the industry itself. The recommendations in this plan can be used to impact and influence industries, State agencies, and planning districts while considering the needs of Tribal Nations cities, and other communities. A robust infrastructure is essential for sustainable economic development.
