community development

MEDB coordinates the Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) report for Maui County, a process undertaken every five to six years. CEDS is a Federally mandated, locally-based strategic plan for regional economic development and capacity building, with an emphasis on economic resilience and job creation.

MEDB facilitates community input through a focus group process and synthesizing comments into a comprehensive report. This report is delivered and presented to policy and decision makers and combined with similar reports from the other counties to provide a “roadmap” document to guide decision-making statewide.
