Erie County has “modest” resources for economic growth and should concentrate on creating jobs in areas where Erie County has real opportunities — retail stores, health care and tourism.
That’s the conclusion reached in a new report on Erie County’s economic development opportunities.
Greater Erie Marketing Group commissioned the report, which was released publicly at 8 a.m. by AngelouEconomics, an economic development firm based in Austin, Texas.
AngelouEconomics’ “Erie County Situational Analysis” is meant to serve as the first step in an effort to revamp Erie County’s economic development program.
The report says Erie County should target industries that are well-suited for the area. More here.

Unfortunately, the local newspaper actually got it all wrong. The report didn't say that emphatically, it said that the county should ADD tourism, retail & health care jobs to its priorities of industrial, manufacturing, high-tech, etc.
