Toward 2020: A Vision for Economic Development in the Municipal District of Opportunity
|
The Municipal District of Opportunity has a growing and diversified economy – together with an attractive business climate that supports entrepreneurship, small business development, business retention and growth, and new business attraction. The M.D. is widely-known as The Land of Opportunity, but also for being a leader in sustainable development. The principles of environmentally-sound, socially- and culturally-responsible economic development are fundamental, as is the commitment to long-term municipal fiscal and financial sustainability. An increasingly diverse, strong and growing regional economy enables the M.D. to maintain the quality services, programs and infrastructure that residents have come to expect. A pristine environment, beautiful vistas, scenic lakes and an enviable quality of life is ultimately what makes – and will continue to make – the Municipal District of Opportunity a recognized community of choice for residents, businesses and new investment for years to come. |
