Economic Development & Redevelopment Plan

The Economic Development and Redevelopment Plan for the Pinellas Community (EDRP) will be the foundation of Pinellas by Design. The purpose of the EDRP is to identify the principal initiatives necessary to best assure the future economic prosperity, and corresponding high quality of life, desired for all of Pinellas County's citizens and businesses. The EDRP establishes the economic, real estate, and regulatory considerations upon which the recommended strategies for economic development and redevelopment are founded.

The Economic Development and Redevelopment Plan was based on input gathered at the Draft Plan Summit in February 2005. It was approved by the Steering Committee in July 2005, the Pinellas Planning Council in September 2005, and the Board of County Commissioners sitting as the Countywide Planning Authority on November 1, 2005.
