Economic Development Strategy

The City of Coral Springs Economic Development Office (EDO) is developing an Economic Development Strategy. The Strategy will outline the City’s short-term and long-term initiatives to stimulate and support economic growth in Coral Springs.

The project will be conducted using a three-phase process, which consists of (1) a Baseline Assessment, that will answer the question “Where are we today?” (2) Determining Competitive Positioning, where we answer “What direction should we go?” and (3) Strategy Development, that will tell us what tools, programs and partnerships we can use to accomplish our goals. We are in Phase 2 of the process and want to hear from you, the vibrant community members of Coral Springs.

Below you will find three activities that invite you to engage with the Economic Development Strategic Planning process. Economic development involves every single resident and business within the City, and we welcome the opportunity to receive feedback on the Economic Development Strategic Plan.
