Question Title

* 1. Is the Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) easy to read and understand?

Question Title

* 2. Do you see your community, and/or your organization or company’s type of work reflected in the CEDS? For example, are there strategies you could see your community or organization/company collaborating on to address or accomplish?

Question Title

* 3. Do you think the strategies outlined in the plan will benefit Southeast Alaska communities’ economic future?

Question Title

* 4. How can we measure if this plan was successfully implemented in five years?

(For example, Strategy 3 on page 22 reads, “Invest in business generation and entrepreneurship through supportive education, training opportunities, and funding.” One potential way to measure the success of this strategy is if the number of employed Alaska Native people in Southeast Alaska increases over the next five years. What other ideas of measuring economic success or economic growth do you have?)
