|
| | Challenge. To combat the sudden economic downturn that led to high unemployment and loss of sales tax revenue, Yuba City recognized that a city-wide economic development strategy was needed to guide the City’s economic future.
Solution. Chabin Concepts worked with a 24-member Yuba City Advisory Board by conducting four work sessions to identify the top 3 objectives related to the physical, economic, social and political environment of the City:
1. Create a positive and inspiring self-image.
2. Grow opportunities for well paying jobs.
3. Enhance the quality of life through collaborative and integrated actions. - The Yuba City Advisory Board delivered the strategy with Chabin’s recommended next steps for action.
- Within one month of adopting the plan, the City identified an expanding niche manufacturing firm and brought tools and resources to assist the business with their immediate expansion needs.
- Up to 20 new jobs were created since implementation.
