COLLIER COUNTY — After identifying serious gaps in the way economic development is handled in Collier County, a private consultant is recommending big changes.
The draft strategic plan for economic development calls for new structures, new roles, new responsibilities, new leadership and a new shared vision for economic development.
The plan identifies 10 bold goals to achieve over the next five years:
■ Be a community of one voice toward a new vision.
■ Engage broader and deeper leadership in economic development.
■ Recruit 10 new non-retail companies a year, creating 1,000 new jobs with wages 10 percent above the county’s average.
