The Dalles City Council accepted the first phase of an economic opportunities analysis for the city, but asked for more cost information on an action plan. The analysis is the result of a committee made up of various local stakeholders, economic development partners, industry representatives, and developers. It identifies likely economic development opportunities over the next 20 years, with goals including expanding the existing industrial base, growing and attracting talent, and creating a place for all of that to happen. The action plan is a short-term five-year implementation plan for immediate programs and projects. Councilors indicated they wanted to see more cost data for some of the programs before making a commitment to that plan.
