objectives for our regional

workforce plan developed by our

economic and workforce with the counterparts and neighboring

jurisdictions we're being tasked

inform having a creative

economic stream to have a

regional district that will help

us and our neighboring 9 cubits

to have resources to better

address our economic workforce

and equity issues

I want to thank the staff of

abag cynthia crow and johnny for working on this straefb fraction

one of the aspects that I'm

proud of the included the

importance of investing in education

not only at the k college level

but in early care and education

economic equity starts from the

room and the sooner our local

government infuses that philosophy the more impact in shaping the industry of our workforce and, of course, we

need to be thinking proactively

about supporting the workforce

that allows families to be

financially vicinity independent

our teacher as other through the

director of business development

to provide some interjection

before we bring up the staff.

introducing this item I think I can do this less than than 5

minutes I was be originally told

to do I May a minute so

Laughter:  

What are we are talking about

today let's go through that first of all-you know what

and to preserve why you covered

but clearly one part of the

region effects both rich and

resources community it has

challenges that no equity is a

solve but requires more public

and private an e d d is an economic collaboration as well as improved assess throughout

the region for grants and that

supports this and requires the

enforcement by the county board of supervisors involved the comprehensive economic

strategists is a framework for the overall plan

and I will simply is that it is

has an implementation plan many

consultant you can see online

and guided by a broad-based

strategy that represents the economic development and unions and entity first a bit more

about the strategy but it is you

know involves a number of folks

from this actually I'll refer to

my notes you think a different

group with nonprofit and members

of the business community elected officials but beyond the

strategies committee we reached

out to a wide variety of

commerce throughout the region

in all 9 counties that

strengthens this effort includes

to preserve office of economic workforce development and the

bay area council and super and

meta and scombrooush vocalal

services and the sfmta

now the economic profile I'll

not say much one section of recorded that provides the

information that is necessary to

to the actual vision, goals and

objectives and strategic action

plans we're a little ways from

so, now we're getting to the

meat and potato we're asking you

to support today, the broad base

engagement was briefly described led to a vision to recognize the

strength and provide opportunity

for those and retainting the

region I hope you had a chance

to review the 4 goals but a

quick refresh this is what we've

repeatedly across the region and

over all tops the vision to help

the four overarching goals

around housing and infrastructure etc.

Now ultimately I'm not not there

yet but developing an economic

action plan we're seeking input for actions that will advance

the goals but those are the

areas where consensus is needed

and input going forward been especially valuable

I won't say much about that this

is a summer slide is recaps the

benefits of this inspire process

and I'm very happy to report

that is not changing and

provides a framework that

supports and xofz of outcomes and the states for individual jurisdictions and originals or

organizations is to advance

their own efforts or rather

learning awhile enjoying the support is from this regional organization going forward our

schedule to present to county board of supervisors through

November requesting their

support and endorsement and by the end of the year or ri6 we'll

submit the application to the

district so thank you it to you

and to laurel and the team

listed here feel free to send us questions and further

information refer to the website listed there

in the in regards for the

public's knowledge once this

passes and there is put us in a position for resources what kind

of research are we are talking about.

>> I'm sorry what kind of resources.

>> yeah. Can we apply for or.

>> more competitive for grants

public era private and state, federal, and local or regional

we're working on a number of

items through the regional

agencies now we're one agency in

effect we're still not quite

there-that can leverage the

effort as well.

>> but in terms of quantitative from the federal

level what are we are talking about.

>> is there actually a source

of pounding that can't support this.

>> oh, yeah their dedicated

various grant programs and in

terms of the U.S. Dea their

budget has not it is increased

but not just about the b r pta

other large agencies we work

closely the epa, fuming and the department of emergency management believe it or not

have grants and technical

assistance in many areas related

dribble to the office of economic workforce development and understanding of the

different piece of region and

where the most distressed areas

types of grants it increases our competitiveness tremendously. >> thank you, thank you you're welcome. >> thank you very much I'd like to see in the budget

analyst has any remarks to share

the tail end of this exercise

and getting approval for it I

know that is staff where

this document together and even

at the board level although I

was allows knowledgeable about

that document there was a lot of discussion back and forth of looking at creating the best

document out of this so-what
