3. Resilient Economy What jobs & businesses can succeed here over the long term?

4. Interwoven Equity Do people in all neighborhoods and at all income levels have access to housing, jobs and services?

5. Healthy Community Is this an area that supports healthy lifestyles for its residents?

Can this area provide housing and jobs to meet the needs of future regional growth?

7. Authentic Participation Do all stakeholders have opportunities to be involved?
