Economic Development
In today’s economic environment, local communities are faced with many challenges. Decreasing public funds and increased demands for demonstrating efficacy have become an everyday reality for most public organizations. Many of the businesses that shaped communities and gave a source of income to its residents are declining or disappearing. Population demographics are also shifting, leading to changing needs for public service levels and service delivery models. Communities are being forced to take a new perspective on economic development and must use new tools to encourage economic growth.
Rondout Consulting offers impact and feasibility analyses for improved investment and allocation of limited resources. We also craft effective development strategies for creating an economic environment that is attractive to new businesses, and for improving use of already present resources. We provide creative solutions to communities faced with economic hardship, and help bring focus to those communities that are benefiting from a changing economic environment.
