In conjunction with the development of its Comprehensive Plan Update, and Parks and Recreation Master Plan, KKC was retained to develop an overarching economic development strategy for the City of Moscow. Additionally, two special area plans were developed – an industrial park master plan and an urban renewal plan for an ag-industrial area that separated the University from Downtown. The economic development strategy plan focused on opportunities and challenges to business recruitment and development; summarized perception of market-based opportunities and challenges; identified potential target business sectors; and analyzed the regulatory and development approval environment.
