  • The History of the Allegheny Conference on Community Development Making the Pittsburgh Region Attractive to Smart People And
    The History of the Allegheny Conference on Community Development Making the Pittsburgh Region Attractive to Smart People and Smart Investment The Allegheny Conference on Community Development grew out of efforts to unify and coordinate regional economic development, transportation and environmental improvement efforts. In the 1930s and 1940s, there was increased public concern about the long-term future of the region. Studies showed that other regions were economically more diverse, and therefore, stronger. Pittsburgh's extreme concentration of industrial resources made the region unique. But the dependence on heavy industry limited the region's options and made it unattractive for new business and population growth. In particular, there were serious problems with air and water pollution. Various community groups tried to find solutions but their efforts were disjointed and generally ineffectual. During World War II, Pittsburgh Regional Planning Association President Richard King Mellon, Carnegie Institute of Technology President Robert Doherty and others were able to generate support among civic leaders to create a postwar planning committee. Incorporated as the Allegheny Conference on Community Development in 1944, the new organization served as a prominent coordinating mechanism for civic action –a vehicle to organize the private sector to work in partnership with government to improve the region’s economy and quality of life. Initial sponsors included key officials of the public sector – Pittsburgh Mayor David L. Lawrence and Allegheny County Commissioner John Kane – and major segments of the private sector. Older private civic organizations provided initial leadership for the Conference until the late 1940s, when more corporate CEOs joined the executive committee. The Conference built consensus around existing proposals and focused support for those initiatives.
