East Central Wisconsin Economic Development District

As the Designated Economic Development District (EDD) for the East Central Wisconsin Region (Calumet, Green Lake, Fond du Lac, Marquette, Menominee, Outagamie, Shawano, Waupaca, Waushara, and Winnebago Counties), the East Central Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission (ECWRPC) is charged with the preparation and continuous update of a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) through the US Department of Commerce—Economic Development Administration (EDA). Our region has maintained this designation since 1984. The Commission completed a five-year update to its Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) in October of 2008.  The Commission is required to prepare an annual CEDS performance report in iterim years between the required 5-year updates.  More detailed information on the CEDS and CEDS process is summarized in this CEDS Summary Sheet.  Preparation of this document ensures that communities throughout the region are eligible for EDA grant and loan programs.
