Economic Development

The East Central Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission (ECWRPC) was designated as an Economic Development District (EDD) in 1984 by the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Economic Development Administration (EDA). As an EDD, ECWRPC operates as EDA’s service provider through the Commission’s Economic Development program for the 10-county region.

The Economic Development staff offer a variety of services to member governments through Federal funding. Additionally, the staff is actively involved in facilitating economic development throughout the region and fostering cooperation between the public and private sectors. ECWRPC manages the Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) for the region. This strategy allows the ECWRPC to identify and implement the projects necessary for economic development and to best leverage state and federal funds.
