    Waterbury Development Corporation 2012-2013 Annual Report Waterbury Development Corporation 83 Bank Street 3rd Floor Waterbury, CT 06702 2012 Annual Report 1 It is with great pleasure that I offer this report on the operations of the Waterbury Development Corporation (WDC) for 2012-2013. As you will see, this organization’s efforts remain at the heart of a vast range of economic and community development activities on behalf of the City. While this past year has seen its share of challenges, the pages that follow also represent an amazing story of success as we work together to build Waterbury’s future. I am honored to have joined this organization in May and to serve as its new Chief Executive Officer. I view the progress of this past year as a testament to the support and involvement of our Board of Directors and key City stakeholders, an extraordinary team here at the WDC, and of course to the leadership of my predecessor Leo Frank. I would ask that you take particular notice of the Community Impact Map on page 4. While this report provides a narrative of the various activities of our organization, I believe that this map is a powerful reminder of the incredible breadth and scale of WDC’s engagement in partnership with the City of Waterbury. As a key partner in creating a stronger business base, more vibrant neighborhoods and a better quality of life for our City’s residents, I look forward to the opportunity of building an even stronger and more effective organization in the year ahead.
