Chautauqua County Economic Development Strategy 2026–2031: a roadmap for sustainable growth, jobs, investment, and community revitalization.

The Chautauqua County Economic Development Strategy is a countywide framework led by the Chautauqua County Partnership for Economic Growth (CCPEG), an initiative of the Chautauqua Region Economic Development Corporation (CREDC), the non-profit affiliate of the County of Chautauqua Industrial Development Agency (CCIDA). Through the Strategy, the Partnership brings together public, private, and nonprofit partners to coordinate and prioritize key economic development efforts across five areas: Business Development, Workforce, Housing, Infrastructure, and Placemaking. Stakeholders may utilize this Strategy to better align local projects, strengthen grant advocacy, track implementation metrics, and accelerate job creation and long‑term economic resilience across Chautauqua County.
