This federally recognized Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) Project is well underway. The 2019 plan created by Windham and Bennington County stakeholders is a long term strategy to grow the Southern Vermont Economy Zone – a region facing significant economic challenges recognized by the Vermont State Legislature in 2015. Once completed, the 2019 one CEDS will replace the 2014 Windham Region CEDS.

The 2018 Southern Vermont Economy Summit at Mount Snow in May served as a kick off for the overall project. Following this event a series of five public input sessions through Bennington and Windham County took in information on assets, challenges and projects needed.
