Reagan Retrenchment Aim is to let private sector (market) forces determine the fate of the cities Cities that transform themselves to become more attractive to private investment will succeed, cities that don’t will fail.

Clinton Continuity Tax incentives: –$3000 to employer in tax credit for each new hire –Accelerated depreciation of business property (tax write off)

Clinton Continuity Targeted Spending –Areas selected as EZ could get up to $100 million in grant money to assist zone residents in services like education job training child care

Clinton Continuity Strategic Planning –Cities required to devise comprehensive strategies for revitalization that focused on the particular “strengths” of the community

Clinton Continuity Partnerships –Attempt made to include participation at the very local level “Community Coordinating Board” –local political leaders –private sector business leaders –community groups
