Diversifying Defense Dependent Communities

Abstract

This report is one in a series prepared by the Office of economic adjustment (OEA) to provide communities neighboring DOD installations with helpful information pertinent to variety of DoD-related circumstances. Unlike the previous manuals, this one can also be used readily by many communities (with undiversified economies) not hosting DoD activities. OEA has selected five representative illustrations of how local leaders can affect healthy diversification of their community's economy. These method were developed and are used independently of each other and DoD. These illustrations are: Battelle Columbus Laboratories, PHH Fantus Corporation, Midwest Research Institute, University of Arizona, and University of Wisconsin. Keywords: Military facilities; Economic impact; Department of Defense.
