Economic Development

The current study (2018/2019) provides a comprehensive update of the PFF program, excluding RTIF, and summarizes an analysis of the need for public facilities and capital improvements to support future development within Stanislaus County through 2045. The 2019 revision adds the Accessory Dwelling Unit Land Use Category to the PFF Program.

The current 2022-2027 Stanislaus County Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) was approved by the Board of Supervisors on June 14, 2022 with Resolution No. 2022-0278. The U.S. Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration (EDA) requires that a region seeking Federal EDA grant funding maintain an active CEDS and that the economic development priorities and areas of focus be contained in the approved strategy. Compliance with the EDA requirement makes available Federal grant funding opportunities to local jurisdictions through an ongoing competitive process.
