Economic Development Strategy

The Towns of Black Diamond and Turner Valley, in recognizing the shared potential of their communities, developed the Black Diamond – Turner Valley Intermunicipal Economic Development Strategy (IEDS) in November 2019. The strategy leverages existing economic development work done by both communities and advances innovative strategies that stimulate shared growth and prosperity.

The document outlines strategic directions to move the initiative forward. These include:

• Build economic development capacity– This priority includes putting the resources in place and building the base for successful implementation of the strategy.
• Foster a friendly environment for new development and existing businesses – Developing the tools and making information available to ensure investor readiness.
• Support business retention and expansion of entrepreneurship – Providing platforms for existing business promotion and providing resources for new businesses and entrepreneurship.
• Target community-based economic development – Focus on promoting the existing community assets and enabling the community to play an active role in economic development.
• Make Diamond Valley a destination – Showcasing the community as a place to visit, invest, start a business and live.
