DISCUSSION The region’s economy is diverse and fast-growing, but is also facing unprecedented challenges. Growth and prosperity have been unequally distributed. Not every person has had the opportunity to prosper, and some of our largest employers are struggling to find talent for jobs that remain unfilled. The region faces the threat of global competition as other regions aggressively pursue the same businesses, jobs, and investments sought here. In response, a coalition of private- and public-sector leaders, led by Challenge Seattle CEO and former Governor Christine Gregoire, launched Greater Seattle Partners in 2018. This new regional partnership was designed to coordinate and lead regional promotion and economic growth problem solving, while serving as a force multiplier for economic development partners throughout the region. During the past year, GSP has formed, hired initial primary staff, conducted extensive strategy development, and begun implementation. Now GSP is ready to take a major step forward by dramatically increasing its capacity to deliver results for the region, implementing this proactive approach to driving and sustaining regional prosperity – for all. The Regional Prosperity Plan describes goals and strategies designed to: • build the region’s global identity to attract new investment and advance trade, • attract and retain talent to strengthen our regional competitiveness, and • elevate regional economic development to achieve inclusive economic growth.

  • Long-Term Recovery Executive Summary
    SR 530 MUDSLIDE LONG-TERM RECOVERY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY On March 22, 2014, a catastrophic landslide affected several communities in northwest Washington when an unstable hillside gave way. A wall of mud buried an entire neighborhood, taking 43 lives and closing State Highway 530, the physical and economic lifeline for the region. In response to the disaster, Washington State University (WSU) assembled a multi-disciplinary team to support the long-term recovery of the impacted communities. WSU’s efforts have included: ■ ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT: WSU helped craft an award-winning regional Economic Redevelopment Plan that has become the basis for leading the community to the final stages of a $10 million competition. ■ BROADBAND COMMUNICATION: WSU assessed regional telecommunications and is working to improve regional broadband access. ■ COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT: WSU’s Darrington-based coordinator integrated the University’s efforts with local entities to bolster infrastructure, tourism, and recreation projects. ■ ORGANIZATIONAL DEVELOPMENT: WSU assisted the community in creating a natural resource STEM program to support middle and high school students. ■ YOUTH DEVELOPMENT: WSU’s programming helped youth cope with the tragedy of the slide while allowing them to stay in their community. ■ TRAUMA-INFORMED SCHOOLS: WSU is working with schools in Darrington to address students’ long-term emotional recovery from the slide. ■ WSU STUDENT ENGAGEMENT: WSU students have made significant contributions to recovery efforts through community internships, fundraising, and volunteer service trips. ■ GOVERNOR’S LANDSLIDE COMMISSION: WSU facilitated a 12-member commission toward the swift completion of a report which identified critical lessons learned from the slide. ■ SAUK-SUIATTLE TRIBE: WSU is developing a design to be used by the tribe to expand their reservation beyond its current flood-prone location.

Introduction In ancient times, parties wishing to exchange their goods often came to a clearing, or “common ground,” where each could lay down their trading items without fear of attack or treachery. Recognizing the mutual advantage of allowing traders to complete their exchanges, all parties trusted each other to leave their weapons well back in the woods. The modern usage of the term “common ground” has come to mean the exchange of ideas rather than trade goods, but the need for a forum that enables open discussion and the ability to present different ideas without reprisal remains valid.
