Cambria County (DD)
Abstract
Cambria County seeks to use the Office of Economic Adjustment (OEA) grant funding to plan effective strategies for the local industry’s transition away from defense spending. This will be accomplished as the County achieves the following objectives: 1. Engage a broad spectrum of defense-related stakeholders in transition planning to create a effective plan, vision, and strategy for the community. 2. Integrate state and local economic development strategies and plans for the defense sector into a unified path forward. 3. Identify and profile top non-defense industry clusters Johnstown-area employees, workers, entrepreneurs, and support organizations should target for transition efforts. 4. Plan the reuse of existing infrastructure in downtown Johnstown to support local economic diversification.
