• Florida's Strategic Plan for Economic Development <br /> Early Seven50 work on future trends, data collection and policy development provided the <br /> Florida Department of Economic Development (DEO) the basis for including goals, <br /> objectives and strategies benefiting Southeast Florida in their recent strategic plan. As such, <br /> the Seven50 effort is recognized by DEO as a "best practice" and is featured in the State's <br /> strategic plan. <br /> • Seven50 Civic and Leadership Assets Map <br /> This interactive, Google-based map serves as a regional clearinghouse for civic resources and <br /> services provided in the region.

The <br /> designation has afforded several advantages to those local governments who chose to partner <br /> with, the federal government to build critical infrastructure. A requirement of the EDD <br /> designation is maintaining a CEDS plan with updates every five years. As part of the <br /> Seven50 effort, Treasure Coast and South Florida Regional Planning Councils combined their <br /> plans this year to recognize some shared regional economic development opportunities; <br /> reduce paperwork and duplication of effort; and strengthen the advantage of the Region's <br /> local governments for partnering with federal agencies to carry out infrastructure projects and <br /> other economic development activities. <br /> I <br /> c.16 - 6 <br />
