The BCBA received the draft of the Economic Vitality Strategy, which is a report directing time and energies of County government on ensuring a strong local economy. They are looking finalize a long-term set of strategies that will impact everyone who resides, conducts business, or is employed throughout Santa Cruz County. We read the report and distributed it to our membership with a request for feedback. We received calls, emails, and had discussions with many business owners and residents in the area. We worked with local organizations to gather more input. In the end, we compiled the suggestions into this commentary that was submitted to our supervisor, Bruce McPherson. We hope for inclusion of these concepts in the final drafting of the EVS document. Diligent efforts were made to ensure this letter is representative of sentiments regarding economic feasibility, and general concerns for our area. While we cannot expect everyone to agree with every idea presented, we can all agree that the valley needs greater inclusion within the report. We request you support these comments by endorsing below. If you have questions or concerns, please contact us at info@bcba.net. Thank you.
