DRAFT DRAFT <br />Long-Term Growth <br />In order to ensure that the East Metro area continues to grow at <br />a healthy rate, a long -term strategy for development must be <br />developed and implemented. The goals of such a program would be: <br />-To establish an ongoing program of assisting and retaining the <br />businesses that are already here, for it is from them that <br />long -term growth in jobs will come. <br />-To identify industries that provide job growth opportunities <br />and develop a program to market the East Metro area to them. <br />-To provide a strong venture capital community for new company <br />growth. <br />-To target specific areas of opportunity, such as the <br />attraction of foreign capital to the area. <br />-Other economic development initiatives, as they are <br />identified. <br />21 <br />DRAFT Revision 6.1, 9/08/86, Page 6 DRAFT <br />
