Economic development pervades all aspects of City life, and as such, has become a significant key performance area in achieving sustainability for Germantown. The City’s triple bottom line, which refers to economic, environmental and social sustainability, is directly impacted by economic development efforts. The importance of this focus cannot be stressed enough as the competition for jobs, business and community have expanded beyond local to national and global interest. Germantown’s approach to current and future economic considerations can strategically position the City long-term as a quality place to live and conduct business — both crucial elements to its continued reputation as a community of choice.
