Sub Committees

Community Economic Development Committee

 

The GSDC serves as a catalyst in supporting projects that address priorities resulting in long term economic benefits to Greater Sudbury. The goal is to support projects and initiatives that demonstrate potential job and wealth creation and export development while promoting investment and continued economic diversification. The Community Economic Development (CED) Committee, a sub-committee of the board, receives project funding applications and provides due diligence on behalf of the Board and Council.

 

Applicants may include private/public partnerships and organizations located in the City of Greater Sudbury. Applicants must clearly demonstrate how their projects will deliver economic benefits to the Greater Sudbury. The CED Committee of the GSDC recommends investment of financial and/or non-financial resources in projects that promote new alliances, partnerships and sectoral development for the benefit of the community.
