  • Dacorum Borough Council Economic Development
    DACORUM BOROUGH COUNCIL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY 2009–2012 Dacorum is very well placed to play a major role in the country’s economy. It is located on the edge of London with excellent road and rail connections to all economically important parts of the country. With its proximity and easy access to the major London airports it also has ready access to international markets. Dacorum has huge potential for further development. Dacorum aspires to be a first choice location for business and employment, whilst at the same time to lead on protecting and enhancing the environment. We want Dacorum to be a place where people will want to come to live and work and will be able to do so safely. This Economic Development Strategy is ambitious and will lay “ down the foundations for future growth. This can only be achieved by the creation of sustainable and cohesive communities, which can fully participate in the economy. This in turn will require the enabling of the necessary skills and training for local workers, fit for the challenges of the next century. It will require convenient “ and sustainable means of transport to be available to enable people to get to their place of work. We plan to regenerate the Maylands Business Park and will encourage a high standard of design and construction to ensure an attractive work place. We will also work with partner agencies to enable Renewable Energy to be produced locally. Working in partnership with other stakeholders will be an important element of this strategy. We will be working to deliver common goals in the context of national and regional policies such as the East of England Plan and the Sub National Review of Economic Development and Regeneration as well as the Sustainable Community Strategy.
