[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mike111: [QB] LOCAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN CHICAGO 1983-1987: [b]THE REFORM EFFORTS OF MAYOR HAROLD WASHINGTON[/b] Kenneth M. Reardon, Ph.D. Cornell University, 1990 This research focuses upon the economic development policy-making and planning activities of Chicago's Mayor Harold Washington during his first term in office (1983-1987). The major foci of attention in this study are the major economic development policy initiatives and planning decisions of the Washington administration. Among the major policy initiatives examined by this study are: the Buy Chicago, Minority Purchasing, First Source Hiring, General Obligation Bonding, Downtown/Neighborhood Linkage and Citizen Participation Programs. Among the major economic development decisions reviewed by this research are: the Playskool Plant Closing, the Redevelopment of Navy Pier and the 1992 Chicago World's Fair. This study concludes that the Washington administration was quite successful in transforming the nature of local economic development planning within Chicago during its first term in office. Policy changes made by the administration produced a pattern of benefits which provided much more assistance to poor and working class neighborhoods within the city and encouraged formerly excluded groups to participate in the local economic development planning process. Unfortunately, these changes were not fully institutionalized and did not continue beyond Mayor Washington's time in office. [/QB][/QUOTE]
