Incremental strategic planning: A creative adaptation

Abstract

Like those of other older industrial areas in the Midwest and Northeast, Cleveland's problems are many and deepseated. Overall economic stagnation and population loss have eroded the tax base, and the inner city grows older and poorer, while a superficial renaissance of skyscraper construction and theater restoration buoys spirits. Although serious efforts are underway to improve Cleveland's city government, the continued decline in the tax base, along with services, and the virtual collapse of the school system, drive more people into the suburbs and ultimately, from the region.
