Introduction — CEDS Annual Update June 2012
Goals/Work Plan and Accomplishments for 2011/2012
The Shelton Economic Development Corporation (SEDC) submitted the Annual Reportto EDA for the period of July 1, 2011 to June 30, 2012 in accordance with the EDArequirement of the 5-year Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS)approval granted on December 1, 2010. EDA commended all who have contributed tothe successful preparation and approval of the 2010 documents in accordance withEDA guidelines. The 2011/2012 activities focused on the designation of the NVC CEDSas an Economic Development District (EDD). The following sections depict the variousactions taken.
Economic Development District (EDD) Designation
As noted in the June 2011 Annual CEDS Report to EDA, the NVC CEDS 18communities began the process of seeking EDA approval and designation of the Regionas a Federal Economic Development District (EDD).
Governor Dannel P. Malloy on June 6, 2011 requested in writing to EDA's PhiladelphiaRegional Office, their approval of the NVC as a Regional Economic DevelopmentDistrict (EDD).
The Governor's request was based on the Connecticut Legislation and the NVC'spetition to the state for the EDD designation for the NVC CEDS area. The ConnecticutDepartment of Economic and Community Development (DECD) and the Office of Policy& Management (OPM) determined the following:
DECD findings:
a The CEDS is generally consistent with the statewide comprehensive economicdevelopment strategy.The region has sufficient size and represents 18 Connecticut municipalities.The NVC region has four municipalities that meet the minimum distress criteriafor unemployment. These include Ansonia, Naugatuck, Thomaston andWaterbury.
• The NVC CEDS is organized within the Central Naugatuck Valley and the ValleyCouncils of Government borders.DECD acknowledged that they will recommend approval of the NVC CEDSapplication to Governor Malloy.

OPM findings:
• The State of Connecticut Office of Policy and Management per the Secretarydetermined that the NVC CEDS was generally consistent with the StateConservation and Development Plan and granted its approval as an EDD.
The Strategy Committee (Board of Directors) of the NVC on June 13, 2011 unanimouslyapproved a resolution requesting the undersecretary of the U.S. Department ofCommerce, EDA to designate the NVC as an EDA EDD, which will be one of the firstdistricts within the State of Connecticut.
EDA acknowledged on January 25, 2012 the NVC EDD submission and request, andasked for additional information and/or clarification of some administrative functions ofthe proposed District. EDA requested 8 items be addressed. The NVC CEDSChairperson, Sheila O'Malley and James E. Ryan, President of the Shelton EconomicDevelopment Corporation responded in writing to EDA on February 17, 2012, providingthe necessary clarifications and/or support data.
One clarification request was to provide letters of support from a majority of therepresentative communities within the 18 NVC municipalities. SEDC requested from all18 communities a letter of support. To date, 15 of the community's I~llayors, FirstSelectmen and/or Chief Administrative Officers have endorsed in writing the designationof the NVC as one of Connecticut's first EDDs. That is 83%. No negative responseshave been received. The Strategy Committee continues to work with the other 3communities to seek their input to the formation of the EDD.
Certified Resolutions were signed and sealed regarding the approval of the formation ofthe District and were provided to EDA. The resolutions were unanimously authorized.
The Strategy and Advisory Committees along with the chairperson and administrativestaff and consultant continue to work with EDA's Regional Office regarding the EDDdesignation.
Tier 1 Project Advancements
Currently two public works type projects are under construction. The two grants exceed$2,140,000 in EDA funding. Without the CEDS approval, these projects would not havebeen funded by EDA. The grants are further supported by DECD funds in the amount of$1,350,000. Waterbury has received $550,000 and Derby has received $800,000.Additionally, the Cities of Derby and Waterbury are also providing financial support.

The City of Derby prepared plans and specifications for the construction of an AccessRoad including all public utilities for the construction of the Derby Commerce Park. Thisinfrastructure project will open up 20+ acres for private development, creating bothtemporary and permanent jobs; improve the local, state and federal tax base. TheDerby project resulted in 9 bids being received out of 14 potential bidders. The contractwas awarded to the lowest responsible bidder. Construction has commenced and theproject is expected to be completed by December 2012.
The City of Waterbury —Cherry Street Industrial Park -The Waterbury DevelopmentCorporation is the implementing agency for these improvements, which includes thedemolition of a vacant rundown older industrial complex, environmental clean up of thesite, site and public improvements for conveyance of the property to a privatedeveloper. These improvements will permit a local company to expand within the Cityand create new jobs and retain existing jobs. The Waterbury Development Corporationcontinues to work with its design firm on the overall Cherry Street Industrial Parkpreliminary design for the public works infrastructure improvements. The first phase ofthe project is proceeding with the demolition of the industrial complex, while the designprocess continues.
The project is expected to have a separate public works infrastructure bid during the fallof 2012 and the planned improvements are expected to be completed by December2013.
Public Forum on Transportation
The Advisory and Strategy Committees voted at one of the quarterly workshop sessionsto hold a Transportation Summit, this is in keeping with Goal IV: Improve overallTransportation and Communications systems. The Greater Valley Chamber ofCommerce, one of the members of the Advisory Committee, has agreed to host thesummits once the final plans are in place. The Advisory Committee will coordinate theevent with the two Councils of Government, as they represent the overall transportationneeds of the NVC including the development of the Transit Oriented District (TOD).Further coordination for the summit will be based on Congress passing a new five-yeartransportation act including the budget to support many of the overall projects outlinedin the CEDS five-year plan.
Administration
The Chairperson for the NVC Economic Development District (CEDS), Sheila O'Malley,the Derby Director of Economic and Community Development, has consented tocontinue in that position for the coming year, for the CEDS District Committees. JamesE. Ryan, President of the Shelton Economic Development Corporation provides thelead administrative services required for the maintenance of the CEDS process, underthe Naugatuck Valley Corridor Economic Development District.

These four industriesare Wholesale and Retail Trade (16.44%),Education and Health Services (16.33%),Manufacturing (15.02%), and Government(14.70%). The University of ConnecticutWaterbury branch and other highereducational systems and students areworking to prepare for and support the futureNVC economy. Higher education is workingwith the public-private partnership focusing onnew technology transfer capabilities to reachthe 21St Century.
Financial Assistance
SEDC as the lead agency for implementingthe CEDS on an annual basis has submittedand received financial assistance from theKatharine Matthies Foundation, the ValleyCommunity Foundation, the UnitedIlluminating Company, and NaugatuckSavings and Loan Association. Without thisfinancial support and continued financialsupport the CEDS process can not continue.

Organization
2012 Comprehensive Economic Development StrategyNaugatuck Valley Corridor Annual Update
SEDC acts as the lead administrative agent providing the staff necessary to administerand implement the CEDS, with assistance from WDC as necessary. This includescontact with all the Chief Elected Officials, or administrative staff, assembly of theAdvisory and Strategy Committee, outreach to the community organizations,stakeholders survey, and development of community forums for the processing andexchange of information and programs that will be included or carried over fromprevious CEDS. The current economic recession has been very difficult for most of thecommunities in the NVC. All of the 18 communities have seen a drop in the totalunemployment rate from a year ago. The NVC unemployment rates indicated 10communities are at or below the state average with 8 above the national average.Currently, 8 communities (Ansonia, Beacon Falls, Derby, Naugatuck, Seymour,Thomasfion, Waterbury and Wolcott) are in excess of the national average.
As further outlined in the CEDS document the NVC is a Tale of Two NVCs. Thecommunities in the Naugatuck Valley Corridor represent the strengths and weaknessesof Connecticut. Some of the municipalities perform quite well either as a place toconduct business, a residential area, or both. By contrast, other cities struggleeconomically and provide less than optimal living conditions for current and potentialresidents. The municipalities that thrive maintain a stake in those cities ghat strugglebecause their success depends in part on the condition of towns that border them.

Work Plan 2012
The State of Connecticut starting with Governor Malloy and the Department ofEconomic Development and Office of Policy &Management support the designation ofthe NVC as an Economic Development District (EDD), and have requested the variousregions to include Brownfield redevelopment priorities and strategies in each of theannual updates.
CEDS Brownfield topics could include:
1. Assembly, update and consolidation of Brownfield property inventories.2. Identification of critical Brownfield properties where redevelopment will have a
significant impact on the state and regional economy and create jobs.3. Assembly of a list of Brownfields requiring environmental assessments.4. Assembly of a list of Brownfields requiring environmental remediation.5. Proposed land use strategies for Brownfields including: housing, alternative
.energy, urban agriculture, "shovel-ready" sites for economic development,commercial development, and open space/park space.
6. Ufilize DECD Brownfield Remediation Financing Programs.
Attached is a list of EDA Brownfields projects either submitted by the communities, theEPA or the DEEP and/or the Naugatuck Valley Brownfields program.
One of the top work program activities of the new 5-year CEDS will be to re-evaluatethe previous approved CEDS action plans and to reflect on changes in the 18-townCEDS area. Concentration will be on job retention for our existing businesses withassistance as appropriate. Attached is the state list of pending or actual businesseswith a reduction in their workforce. Also, based on availability of federal and/or statefunds, assist those communities that have been impacted with plant shutdowns orrelocation of businesses including Municipal Development Plan (MDP), BrownfieldRemediation, and improve access to local and major arteries.
The 2010 CEDS will continue to examine the NVC needs, problems, and resources;establish goals and objectives, select amulti-year plan of action; and establish aprocess for evaluating its achievements and illustrating changing conditions.
Capital Needs/Infirastructure Program will be implemented with a new e-mail only surveykeeping with green standards, which will be ranked and rated by the StrategyCommittee on a rolling time frame, and incorporated as the building bloc{< of the new

Business &Employment Changes
2012 Comprehensive Economic Development StrategyNaugatuck Valley Corridor Annual Update
Based on sudden and severe economic conditions of higher unemployment rates andplant closings or a reduction in business employment changes as incorporated with theannual report, EDA has made the entire NVC area eligible to receive funding providingthe communities have submitted projects that have been ranked and rated by theStrategy and Advisory Committees. The two corporations have contacted each of thechief elected officials in the 18 communities, highly recommending that they review theircapital improvement projects relative to job growth, economic development andBrownfield Redevelopment needs.
Attached is a list of businesses that are registered with the State Labor Department fora possible reduction in their workforce.
As reported earlier, Ansonia, Naugatuck and fVewtown had interest in submittingapplications to the EDA Philadelphia Regional office. However, EDA has advised allcommunities of its new quarterly funding round application process. Currently, EDA ison a continuing funding resolution until Congress authorizes a new federal fiscal budget.EDA is the only agency in the federal government with the exclusive mission to helpcreate and retain jobs and leverage private investment in the nation's regions. EDArecently announced several important changes to its grant application and reviewprocess to ensure it is as efficient, transparent and competitive as possible.
Local officials have become more aware of the CEDS process and their participation inthe quarterly meetings improves from quarter to quarter pertaining to attendance andsubmission of recommendafiions for inclusion.
Demographics — NVC —18 Communities
The demographics have been revised to show the expansion of the CEDS to 18communities. The 18 communities of the NVC CEDS population in 2000 was 382,125and in 2010 per the US Census the population increased to 403,578, a difference of21,453 a 5.6% change.

Lessons Learned
The Advisory and Strategy Committees under the leadership of its Chairperson, SheilaO'Malley of the City of Derby has continued to develop a partnership with governmentand business leaders through the CEDS Outreach process. The results of the publicforums have drawn more than six hundred parfiicipants.
SEDC/WDC continues to utilize the CEDS process to develop economic partners withthe eighteen communities and prepare data and information to support one ofConnecticut's eight EDDs. Governor Malloy has recognized the efforts and supportedthe NVC designation to EDA. The Advisory Committee will focus its attention onobtaining EDA approval of the EDD, which will further regional projects and provide foradditional financial opportunities. The partnering committees continue to oversee theCEDS document, maintain, update and adjust, prepare and submit reports, monitorsignificant changes in the economy, coordinate all committees, outsource information by
Page 11
2012 Comprehensive Economic Development StrategyNaugatuck Valley Corridor Annual Update
communicating with all the partners, all of which are reported in detail throughout theannual update.
Implementation and monitoring of the CEDS will have direct impacts on each of thecommunities with some communities having a greater economic benefit througheconomic growth, job expansion, new businesses and/or relocation than others, but theentire region will have the benefit because job opportunities will be available for allresidents of the corridor. The demographics show thaf fourteen communities hadincreases in the labor force while four communities had decreases in their labor forceduring the past year. The NVC labor fiorce showed and increase of 991 workers and 17of the 18 communities had a reduction in their unemployment rate. This is a positivesign concerning the economy future as we set our vision for 2012/2013. The CEDSprocess is also to be used as a measuring stick for improving transportation, which isthe bloodline for economic growth since the majority of our residents and/or businessesuse our highways to commute and to deliver their products and services. As per thestakeholders survey improved rail services on the Waterbury to Bridgeport line willassist with the traffic congestion by reducing car usage.
CT Congressional representatives are aware of the NVC CEDS and have participated inour public forums and assisted with economic development grants for our communities.Their assistance in procuring additional grants in aid for our individual communities or aregional organization will have an overall economic benefit.
Priorities — 2012/2013 Action Plan
o EDA approval of the NVC as an EDDTransportation Summit fall of 2012Brownfields Remediation/Redevelopment — creating and identifying sites

o Review the priorities in the 2012/2013 CEDS work plan includingBrownfield Remediation.
o Final acceptance of the NVC/CEDS as one of Connecticut's first EDDs.
Future Plans
The two corporations will focus on the implementation of the EDA accepted 5-yearstrategy. Continued commitment from EDA for financial assistance and the approval ofthe NVC area as an EDD is required. Other funding partners are in place or anapplication for assistance has been made for continued participation. Based on theapproval of the CEDS, the two corporations continue to monitor, amend and report onthe progress of the goals and objectives of the overall strategy. Applications have beenmade to EDA, The Community Foundation for Greater New Haven, the ValleyCommunity Foundation, The Naugatuck Valley Savings and Loan Association and theKatharine Matthies Foundation, fhe various utility companies that service the CEDSdistrict, and any other organization in order to support the implementation of the CEDS.The funding from all of the organizations is vital in order to permit the successfulimplementation of the CEDS. Without full financial aid some activities will be reduced oreliminated and the future of the CEDS process could be in jeopardy.
The CEDS Process
The CEDS process has permitted SEDC/WDC to reach out to the 18 municipalities, theCouncils of Government and the private sector through the Chambers of Commerce toprovide them with a framewor{< for a planning process that incorporates all segments foreconomic development and growth within the region. The municipalities in the NVCrepresent the strengths and weaknesses of Connecticut. The NVC (SWOT) story wasoutlined in the Strategy, which was reviewed and accepted by EDA on the federal sideand on the state side with Governor Malloy recommending the creation of the NVCEDD. Some of the municipalities perForm quite well either as a place to conductbusiness, a residential area, or both. By contrast, other cities struggle economically andprovide less than optimal living conditions for current and potential residents. Themunicipalities that thrive maintain a stake in those cities that struggle because theirsuccess depends in part on the condition of towns that border them. The CEDS hasfocused on industry clusters, transportation needs, Brownfields remediation,environmental awareness and community development activities, and encouragedinformation technology zones like the one currently existing in downtown Waterbury.Based on the Transportation Summit, the Economic Development Summit and theRegional [3rownfields Partnership Summit, the CEDS leaders are planning on follow-upsummits to further explore "new development" opportunities for the NVC CEDS area.The summits have the support of the Councils of Government, the Regional PlanningAgencies and the two Chambers of Commerce. Through the ongoing planning processthe corporations will attempt to identify new funding sources to benefit the continuedplanning thafi is necessary for the modification of the CEDS. Continued support of local
Page 13
2012 Comprehensive Economic Development StrategyNaugatuck Valley Corridor Annual Update
community foundations similar to the excellent support provided by the CommunityFoundation for Greater New Haven and the Matthies Foundation have beeninstrumental in the continued success of the CEDS process for the region.
Work Plan 2012-2013 Outcomes
1. Receive EDA designation of the NVC as an EDD.2. Continue the Implementation the NVC CEDS Strategy.3. Improve overall transportation infrastructure through capital projects.4. Improve local infrastructure through capital projects listed in the CEDS.5. Brownfield's land/building reclamation/remediation.6. Increase philanthropic activities and efforts.7. Increase awareness of National Heritage Corridor.8. Economic recession continues to have an impact on the 18 communities, while
some improvement in the unemployment statics have been noted there arecontinued —loss of jobs, planting closings or relocations, housing slow downs,and foreclosures continue at an all time high. The 2010 census indicate most ofthe communities have show an increase in their population, please refer to thepopulation chart for the actual changes.
The SEDC/WDC will with the assistance of its financial partners continue theinvolvement of the eighteen communities and all its leaders to monitor amend andstrengthen the overall CEDS strategy.

2012 Comprehensive Economic Development StrategyNaugatuck Valley Corridor Annual Update
Organization and Management
ManagementlLeadership Continues
The NVC CEDS has been managed successfully over the past 10 years by the sametwo Economic Development Corporations the Shelton Economic DevelopmentCorporation (SEDC) and the Waterbury Development Corporation (WDC). TheNaugatuck Valley Corridor (NVC) has had 2 previous CEDS documents approved forthe NVC area. The 2012 Annual Report from the Shelton Economic DevelopmentCorporation (SEDC) demonstrates its leadership and commitment in continuing theNVC CEDS. The SEDC and the WDC accepted the management of the planningprocess for the eighteen-town area designated as the NVC. The two corporations(SEDC/WDC) created the original Advisory Committee consisting of the two regionalplanning agencies/councils of government and the Greater Waterbury Chamber ofCommerce and the Lower Naugatuck Chamber of Commerce.
The NVC CEDS approved by EDA recognizes the past and points to the future, with theintent of improving the Economic Development of the 18 communities in NVC. For thepurpose of this annual report we have chosen not to duplicate the history, but choose tohave a vision for continued success.
The NVC has distinct strengths, which include but are not limited to local governmentsthat care for business, a committed workforce and apre-existing infrastructure that isconducive for business. The prime location of this district, including its transportationnetwork Interstate I-84 on the North running East to West and CT Rt. 8 running North toSouth in the center of the Valley Corridor connects to the Merritt Parkway CT Rt. 15 andInterstate I-95.
The original Strategy indicated that the NVC needed to build upon past success anddevelop new strategies. For example, abandoned industrial sites, which contribute tothe image that the NVC is a depressed area, should be inventoried, targeted andprioritized for clean-up because they are excellent locations for new businessdevelopment. The Brownfields conference held on June 12, 2008 reconfirmed the needto reindustrialize our Brownfields to create new business opportunities for the privatesector creating both short and long term employment positions. This will remain apriority for 2012/2013 of the CEDS. Brownfield Redevelopment Remediation is apriority.
As the two lead corporations determined in 1999 more time is needed to educate thedistrict's business, civic, community, and political leaders. Example, projects that looktown specific have afar-reaching regional effect. The individual strength of each townis not nearly as powerful and productive as the strength of the entire district.

CEDS Process 2012/2013 - Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy
The two corporations acting as the parents and/or governing bodies continue to acceptthe responsibility of building on the original CEDS documents and began the process toconvert to the CEDS program. EDA recognized their leadership and overall communityacceptance of the two corporations and commissioned SEDC and WDC to continuewith the new CEDS in a letter dated December 1, 2010.
All the partners outlined below accepted the responsibility of building on the Strategy.Based on the effort, experience and general acceptance of previous efforts the followingorganization and management team are in place for the implementation of the CEDS.
Advisory Committee
The Chairperson is Sheila O'Malley. Currently she is the Economic DevelopmentDirector for the City of Derby. The chairperson was familiar with the CEDS processbased on her previous government relationships. The chairperson accepted theresponsibility of running the Advisory Committee and the Strategy Committee.
Members of the Advisory Committee supported that the SEDC act as the leadadministrative role for the implementation of the CEDS with assistance from the WDC.Both of these corporations have been recognized as leading regional economicdevelopment and community development, planning and implementation orientedagencies.
Advisory Committee Calendar for 2012/2013
The Advisory Committee will meet quarterly in October, January, April and June on thethird Thursday of the month.
The Calendar for 2012/2013 for the Advisory Committee is as follows:

Strateav Committee
The SEDC and the WDC administrative staff have the responsibility, experience andknowledge to prepare the technical and administrative components of the overall CEDSimplementation. Based on the initial experience of preparing the EconomicDevelopment Strategy for the 18 towns an initial framework was created to establish thefoundation for a Strategy Committee. Building on the initial experience and working withEDA's Philadelphia Regional Office staff, the two corporations have during the annualprocess expanded their window of opportunity to include additional participation in thereview and implementation of the Strategy, the capital project investment survey anddevelopment process, but more importantly a framework for ongoing assistance andparticipation. Organizations being represented include local governments, businesses,industry, finance, the professionals, labor, utilities, community organizations, publicservice agencies, racial or ethnic minorities, and women.
Strategv Committee Calendar for 2012/2013
The Strategy Committee will meet quarterly on the first Tuesday in October, January,April and June of every year or as needed.
The Calendar for 2012/2013 for the Strategy Committee is as follows:

2012 Comprehensive Economic Development StrategyNaugatuck Valley Corridor Annual Update
Members of our Strategy Committee (names, occupations and areas they arerepresenting are on file with both corporations.) The Committee members broadlyrepresent all interests of the 18 communities beginning with public leadershipcommencing with the two (2) Councils of Government that represent the 18communities in the NVC area. These elected officials that form the Valley Council ofGovernment and the Central Naugatuck Valley Council of Government are providedinformation regarding the preparation and content for the CEDS. Other membersinclude the Executive Committee of SEDC and WDC Board of Directors,representatives of the Lower Naugatuck Valley Chamber of Commerce, the GreaterWaterbury Chamber of Commerce, local Planning and Zoning Commissions, EconomicDevelopment Commissions, Insurance Agency, Social Services Agency, Boards ofEducation, Community Organizations, Women and Minorities, and the RegionalPlanning Agencies that govern the 18 communities including the Valley Council ofGovernments and the Central Naugatuck Valley Council of Government.
Working Relationships
The Strategy Committee at its quarterly meetings will monitor and review economicdevelopment trends (i.e. employment numbers), the status of capital projects, and othereconomic conditions, i.e. the closing of manufacturing or businesses that impact acommunity in the corridor. Review recommendations from the support staff of SEDCand WDC, and recommend as appropriate amendments to the implementationplans/CEDS document. Also, assist communities with submitting economicdevelopment grants to both federal and state agencies as the budget permits. Continueto work with community foundations that are located within the jurisdictional area of the18 communities that have supported and continue to support the CEDS process.
Where appropriate the Strategy Committee, because of its community involvement, maybe asked to contact local, state and federal legislators, either regarding implementationand/or legislation that will be beneficial to the corridor area.
Staff Support
SEDC/WDC will continue to provide the day-to-day administrative functions andresponsibilities for the overall strategy, working with chief elected officials of eachmunicipality and/or their economic development agents. Their involvement will includecollecting and disseminating information, assistance with establishing implementationpriorities and monitoring existing programs to aid the region. The staff of thecorporations and the consultant will provide both demographic and technical informationregarding the ever changing population, out migrations from our major cities, andincreased population in the rural communities within the NVC, economic and taxinformation provided as part of the overall planning and technical assistance aspect tothe various committees.
Page 4
2012 Comprehensive Economic Development StrategyNaugatuck Valley Corridor Annual Update
The two corporations will annually submit to EDA requests for financial assistance tocontinue the CEDS process. Requests will also be made annually to other corporationsin the NVC area to assist with the implementation and updating process required by theCEDS guidelines. The success of our funding partners will determine the levels ofservice the Corporations can provide.
The Capital Needs Evaluation Assessment Team
The Committees continue to encourage all 18 communities to submit as available anytype of capital improvement program for the Committee to review and include in theCEDS document. The Strategy Committee at its various public forums and at all of itsquarterly meetings advises the participating communities of the "open enrollment"opportunity for submission of projects.
In addition, the Strategy Committee at its June 2012 meeting reviewed the matrix forNVC capital improvement projects. The modified ranking system better reflects projectsthat are "ready to go" as Tier I. Projects that are in final planning or design stage arereferred to as "mid-point" or Tier II. Projects that are not ready for implementation withplanning and design in conceptual or early phases will be considered Tier III. Also, theCommittee recognized that many communities have very desirable projects that requiremore time for planning and initial engineering. The Committee supports the ideas andconcepts of these communities and has established a Technical Assistance HighPriority (T.A.) category for this purpose. Therefore, the Strategy Committee has revisedthe projects into two categories: capital improvement and technical assistance projectseach with a high priority ranking:
Capital ImprovementsTier I —High Priority -ready for implementation 0-35 monthsTier II —Mid-point 36/59 monthsTier III —Long Term 60 months and beyond
Technical Assistance:T.A. —High Priority - Planning &Engineering
This new designation under T.A. are for projects that require additional planning andengineering needs that will result in short and long term jobs when implemented. Theseare Technical Assistance High Priority projects.
The Committee is not ranking the projects beyond placing them in a tier category asdefined above. See the overall matrix, which covers all projects received, ranked andrated to date. As of the June 19, 2012 meeting of the CEDS Strategy Committee, 13municipalities out of 18 have submitted a projects) for inclusion in the CEDS, and onenon-profit corporation. A total of 33 capital investment projects have been included inthe 2012 CEDS Annual Report.
Page 5
2012 Comprehensive Economic Development StrategyNaugatuck Valley Corridor Annual Update
The Advisory Committee as of the June 19, 2012 meeting reviewed the capital projectresponses. All the projects previously rated and scored were carried over to the2012/2013 CEDS year. The Tiers are as follows:
Capital Improvements:Tier 1: 11 projects High PriorityTier II: 6 projectsTier III: 1 project
Technical Assistance:T.A. High Priority: 7 projects
Not Rated: 8 projects
Committee Work Program
The staff received the demographic and economic background information from theconsultant. The information was reviewed and analyzed by the staff and presented tothe Strategy Committee and other regional organizations that have an interest in theeconomic viability of the region.
The Committees have accepted this information including transportation, housing andeconomic development initiatives planning and/or additional engineering of the variouscommunities and began to analyze how the 'implementation plan would be phased overa period of time, and established a three tiered implementation designation for capitalproject:
Tier I —ready for implementation 0-35 monthsTier II —Mid-point 36/59 monthsTier III —Long Term 60 months and beyond
A separate category has now been developed for projects with good economicopportunity/benefit that require new or additional planning and engineering analysis.These are referred to as High Priority Technical Assistance projects.
The background information that was presented to the Strategy Committee allowed forreview, discussion and decision making predicated on local jurisdictional matters and/orregional concepts that have been considered and voted upon by the appropriateagencies.

2012 Comprehensive Economic Development StrategyNaugatuck Valley Corridor Annual Update
Brownfields
The NVC CEDS from its initial strategy has referred to the need to identify "Brownfields"and to redevelop the existing site and/or building. DECD requested that eachCEDS/EDD begin to include Brownfields Redevelopment Priorities in their strategies.This Annual Report is a small step in meeting this request. The attached matrixinventory of EPA, DEEP and the Naugatuck Valley Brownfields Partnership identifiesenvironmental issues. EPA identifies 115 projects, Naugatuck Valley BrownfieldsPartnership indicates 38 individual sites and 5 major clean-up projects. The DEEPmatrix identified 1,631 sites with some form of an environmental issue while many havebeen corrected the majority of the Brownfield Redevelopment activities are lagging.They are both public and privately owned properties. As the CEDS Advisory Committeeprepared for the 2012 Annual Report, along with requesting a Capital Project update,the Committee also requested a Brownfield Project Status Report from the 18municipalities. The Capital Project update included a section on Brownfields. As of thisreport no municipality has responded to the Brownfields Project Status request. Thesection regarding the Brownfield request is as follows:

The Naugatuck Valley Corridor has long been one of the Connecticut's leadingmanufacturing centers. In fact, Connecticut has been designated as one of its "cluster"areas for precision metals. It is also true that manufacturing jobs continue to decline inConnecticut and the Naugatuck Valley Corridor.
Page 1
2012 Comprehensive Economic Development StrategyNaugatuck Valley Corridor Annual Update
Many of the jobs lost in manufacturing are directly related to change in technology andmanufacturing applications and processing. Many of the old manufacturers have failedto keep pace with technology, capital costs for new equipment, research anddevelopment funds were channeled elsewhere. Many of the NVC sites and buildingswere reduced in size; the major manufacturing communities in the NVC like Waterbury,Naugatuck, Seymour, Ansonia and Derby have lost their competitive edge. Worldeconomics, cost of doing business, and regional competition have left communities with"Brownfields".
Communities li{<e Waterbury, have very limited land to compete for new businessopportunities. Very few if any large tracts of land say 10+\- acres for "Businesses" areavailable. Therefore, business growth and sprawl spreads to other communities with"open" land for all forms of economic expansion.
Yet communities like Waterbury continue to provide extensive services to the region,education, governmental agencies/services, hospitals and associated health care,transportation hubs and a workforce of both skilled and unskilled workers.
Community Development
Community development activities affect the lives of all residents of the NVC CEDS aswell as the vitality of the businesses that operate there.
The Environment
■ Industrial waste and Brownfields are the most identifiable and pressingenvironmental problems confronting the Valley.The Brownfields Pilot project is an innovative and effective regional effort thatoffers considerable promise in addressing environmental issues in the Valley.■ Sprawl and the loss of open space is becoming a major concern, and with no
regional land use planning there is a threat to the long-term quality of life inthe region.■ A number of small environmental organizations in the region are focusing on
preserving farm land, open space, and the quality of rivers. However theyhave limited capacity and have not been very involved in regionalcollaborative organizations.
Industrial waste and brownfields are the most identifiable and pressingenvironmental problems confronting the Valley.
The Valley is not alone, of course, in coming to grips with an industrial past —abandoned factories, boarded up mills, and contamination of sites and waterways.Unfortunately, many of the problems are very visible and many are close to the
Page 2
2012 Comprehensive Economic Development StrategyNaugatuck Valley Corridor Annual Update
downtowns of several communities. Cleaning up these visual eyesores and turningthem into a more productive use is a very serious challenge for the Valley. Someplanning and clean-up has begun, but much remains to be done.
The Brownfields Redevelopment is an innovative and effective regional effort thatoffers considerable promise in addressing environmental issues in the NVC.
The NVC CEDS Committees have begun the development of a matrix of identifyingenvironmental issues in the 18 communities. Many of the projects are completed, someare in the process and others await further financial aid from federal, state and local andthe private sector.
