Expedited Reviews

The Economic Development staff identified Expedited Review as a key, short-term

policy strategy to support economic development growth, which is a typical strategy

we have seen in most of the communities we have studied.

The Economic Development staff helps to support and facilitate Expedited Reviews

by acting as Ombudsman, when requested, which is good. We discuss the Planning

Division’s expedited review process in the Planning Division Section above and make

several recommendations to help strengthen to service and ensure that it operates

effectively.
