Project Overview

Five-year Implementation Plan. This Strategy will serve as a guiding document to drive economic development in the City of Los Angeles. The Strategy will likely address a range of initiatives included, but not limited to:

Specific actions and programs that the City can take to help drive the local economy forward;

Initiatives that support expanded economic opportunity for the City’s residents;

Key City investmentsrequired to accomplish these and other objectives; and

Partnerships and collaboration to achieve desired outcomes.

The Strategy is being prepared by a team led by HR&A Advisors, Inc., under a contract with the City.
