Fourth Economy will develop a clear action plan based on an analysis of prior planning efforts and relevant data and broad stakeholder and resident engagement. The final plan will inform strategic opportunities, provide a real estate market analysis, and identify potential avenues for focusing the flow of private capital and economic investment.
