Ms. Best highlighted some of the challenges and strengths in the 2006 Performance Index. Mr. Olmstead presented the fifth series of the performance index prepared since 1997, which focuses on Contra Costa County competing in a global economy. The indicators pointed to: 1. Strengthen the County's existing and emerging industry clusters; 2. Promote and support entrepreneurship and new business formation; 3. Develop educational and training programs for a knowledge-based economy; 4. Foster a culture of innovation and risk-taking; 5. Develop livable communities that are affordable for a diverse workforce. Ms. Best said the information can be accessed on their website www.cceconptnr.org or www.contracostaco unsel.coni. Supervisor DeSaulnier noted the Performance Index studies show the housing cost and disposable income for an average household and asked whether it would be possible to include and update the Index with information on other fixed costs such as education, transportation, health care and tax costs. Mr. Olmstead said the information is received from the community survey of the United States Census done yearly by county and major cities across the United States, and said he would try to get the information. Supervisor DeSaulnier responded that if he or his staff receives the information they would let Mr. Olmstead know. Ms.Best elaborated the Workforce Board has done an analysis last year for the information needed for Supervisor DeSaulnier for a family of four. Supervisor Glover said a lot of great work is taking place in County, and that the County needs to take advantage of the information that has been provided. Mr. Cullen told the Board that with their support he plans to use this material to ask the Departments how the County can use the Performance Index information for future planning. ADDENDUM TO D.4 APRIL 11,2006 Page 2 of 3 Chair Gioia stressed the importance of having a high level discussion among all the different leadership of these different efforts even if it is not in a formal way of understanding this data and the context of all these efforts so there is a connection between them and thinking how best to achieve that. Supervisor Piepho asked Mr. Cullen to put a link on the Economic partnerships website so there could be a direct connection in what the county is doing and complete in a global economy. Chair Gioia said it is good to look at countywide data for signs of trends, but that it is also important to recognize the differences in the sub regions of the County. He pointed out that diversification is developing rapidly within Contra Costa County, and that strategies to solve problems may not be"one size fits all" By a unanimous vote with none absent, the Board of Supervisors took the following action: ACCEPTED the 2006 Performance Index Report, presented by the Economic Partnership Executive Director, Linda Best and the Contra Costa Newspaper's Director of Market Research and Strategic Planning, Don Olmstead.

Most of the jobs that will be created are expected to be in the service sector propelled in part by the growth of business services, healthcare, engineering, and management sub-sectors. Manufacturing employment, which has been declining over the past decade, is expected to continue its downward slide. Emerging industries in the technology sector are expected to provide a growing source of new jobs during the coming decades. Job growth, however, is not keeping pace with population growth. Compared to other counties in the United States with similar sized populations, Contra Costa County has the fewest number of jobs per working age population. Diversity of Existing & Emerging Industries: The County's economic base is concentrated in six industry sectors -- petro-chemical manufacturing, financial services, professional & business services, healthcare, construction, and leisure & hospitality--which account for almost fifty(50%) percent of the County's jobs. Retail and public sector employment make up another 27% of the jobs. Emerging high-tech industry clusters (software, instruments, biotechnology, environmental, medical technology), plus the telecommunication sector account for 7.7% of the county's employment base. Small, fast-growing technology companies will be important contributors to the county's future economic vitality. Strengthening the County's knowledge- based industry clusters in information technology, life sciences, and healthcare technology will be important for future job creation. Growing Entrepreneurial Economy: Small and medium-sized businesses continue to generate most of the job growth in Contra Costa with small firms of less than 100 employees accounting for approximately 78% of the total businesses in the County. The number of small businesses has been growing faster than medium sized businesses and large corporations. New business formations are up in recent years despite the economic downturn. While innovation and new business formations will help drive job growth, Contra Costa County lacks the well-defined social, business, and financial infrastructure necessary to promote an entrepreneurial culture that encourages risk taking and supports new start-ups. Diversity of Corporations: Contra Costa County is home to a number of large corporations such as Chevron, SBC, BioRad, and John Muir Health System, as well as a number of small and medium-sized enterprises (SME's). The number of corporate and regional headquarters located in Contra Costa, however, is below the average for counties of comparable size. Although the County's major corporations represent less than 1% of the total businesses, they employ 18.3% of the local workforce and typically pay higher wages than small and medium- sized businesses. Retail Growth: Contra Costa County is an affluent market with the fourth highest median personal income in the State. Retail sales have steadily increased since 2000, although at a slower rate than during the boom years of the late 1990's due to a sluggish regional economy in recent years. Since retail trade is the second-largest sector of the County's economy, this slowdown will affect both local governments that are dependent on retail sales taxes and workers seeking jobs, especially young people. Retail employment, however, remains strong with retail jobs accounting for 18.3% of the County's employment base. The number of retail outlets has declined over the past decade as stores move toward larger facilities and specialty retail struggles to survive. 2 QUALITY OF LIFE Declining Mobility: More people are taking public transit, yet traffic congestion continues to increase due to the lack of jobs within the County. Vehicle traffic delays have increased by fifty percent since 1997. The average time to work increased by 26.5% between 1980 and 2000. While additional transportation improvements are needed, local job creation is necessary to meet the needs of a growing population and to reduce the amount of out-commuting to job centers elsewhere in the Bay Area. Protected Open Space: County residents enjoy a wide variety of open spaces from state and regional parks to scenic shorelines, wildlife preserves, bicycle paths and hiking trails. With 0.11 acres of protected open space per capita Contra Costa County compares favorably with the average for the Bay Area. Open space acquisition and preservation, however, is not keeping pace with population growth. New funding sources are required in order to purchase additional property, including strategic parcels. Livable Communities: Contra Costa cities have a mixed track record in developing attractive communities and walkable downtown areas. Because of the dispersed nature of our retail, health, recreation, libraries, and job centers, the distances between many of the places we want and need to go cannot be easily walked. A number of local cities are developing attractive, walkable downtowns with a variety of retail shops, restaurants, farmers markets, theatres, libraries, entertainment, and housing — making those communities a highly desirable place to live and conduct business. County residents also enjoy a wide variety of open spaces from regional parks, scenic shorelines, and wildlife preserves, to community parks and bicycle paths. CONCLUSION Communities that offer a strong growing economy, affordable housing, quality schools, diverse cultural amenities, abundant recreational activities, and an exciting social environment, attract the most skilled, best-educated segments of the workforce. While Contra Costa has a number of strengths including an educated, skilled workforce, a-growing number of enterprising individuals looking to start new businesses, an excellent community college system and other institutions of higher education, emerging technology sectors, and an attractive quality of life, there are a number of cautionary flags being raised about its competitiveness in a global economy. Indicators point to a need to: 1. Strengthen the County's existing and emerging industry clusters; 2. Promote and support entrepreneurship and new business formation; 3. Develop educational and training programs for a knowledge-based economy; 4. Foster a culture of innovation and risk-taking; 5.
