The Southwest Michigan Planning Commission is the designated Economic Development District for southwest Michigan. One of the functions of regional economic development districts is to prepare a Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS). Included in the CEDS are the regional economic development goals as prepared by a committee with a variety of representatives from Berrien, Cass, and Van Buren counties. The CEDS also includes a brief description of local projects being developed that will have an impact on the overall economic health of the region.
If your municipality or economic development organization has a project you would like included in the 2008 Annual Report please submit the form linked here: 2008 Economic Development Call for Projects
