Yankee Candle Sold for $1.75 Billion
DEERFIELD — Last week, Yankee Candle announced its $1.75 billion sale to Jarden Corp., a consumer products company based in Rye, N.Y., boasting a diverse portfolio of more than 120 brands, including Coleman, Rawlings, Ball, Bicycle, Diamond, Mr. Coffee, First Alert, Oster, and Sunbeam. The move comes six years after Chicago-based Madison Dearborn Partners bought the iconic scented-candle brand for $1.6 billion. Dearborn put the company up for sale earlier this year with an asking price of $2 billion. Michael Kittredge II founded Yankee Candle in his parents’ garage in South Hadley in 1969 and grew it into a multi-million-dollar retailer and tourist destination in Deerfield, employing more than 6,500 workers year-round. Kittredge sold 90% of his shares in the company in 1998 for about $400 million, and the new management took the company public in 1999.

Westfield State Trustees Cheer Dobelle’s Spending
WESTFIELD — Westfield State University President Evan Dobelle received a strong vote of support from the school’s board of trustees following an accountant’s report detailing exorbitant travel and spending habits by university officials.
“When you are a visionary and want to do something great, you’re going to have detractors,” said board member Terrell Hall during the trustees’ recent meeting, which included an hour-long presentation by accountant David Diiulis of the O’Connor & Drew auditing firm, outlining repeated violations of travel and credit-card policies involving Dobelle and other employees that emerged during a five-month review commissioned by the trustees. Among the findings was that Dobelle reimbursed the school $68,000 for personal use of a university credit card between June 2008 and February 2013, in violation of school policy barring the use of WSU credit cards for personal use. In defending the findings, Dobelle acknowledged some bookkeeping errors but insisted that all expenses were for the benefit for the university. “In no small measure due to the travel and fund-raising you and I have undertaken with various other university representatives, faculty, and students in the few years since I began this job, we have accomplished game-changing successes,” he said, citing an overhaul of WSU’s international exchange program, the implementation of new academic programs, and capital improvements on campus. “Meaningful change does not occur without substantial investment of time and financial resources, and cultivation of support. I am deeply proud of what our university has accomplished in these past few years, and am eager to continue this trajectory toward even more significant successes in the years to come.” O’Connor & Drew found that Dobelle and other officials violated the school’s travel and credit-card policies while visiting San Francisco, New Orleans, Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, New York City, Washington D.C., and other cities. Despite lacking receipts and other documentation, university officials also charged expenses from Spain, Vietnam, Thailand, and China to the Westfield State Foundation, the school’s nonprofit fund-raising arm. In particular, the report criticized university officials for using school credit cards for personal expenses, regardless of whether the money was reimbursed; booking trips with little advance notice; changing or canceling flights; and running up excessive costs for meals and hotel rooms.

Palmer, Mohegan Sun Unveil Host-community Agreement for Casino
PALMER — The town of Palmer and Mohegan Sun announced a host-community agreement last month, revealing millions of dollars in mitigation payments and setting the stage for a referendum date so residents can vote on the casino proposal. The agreement features an annual mitigation payment of $15.2 million to the town, plus shares of gaming revenues, as well as an additional, one-time $2.94 million fee for public safety and streetscape improvements in the business and commercial districts. The agreement was signed by Mitchell Etess, CEO of the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority, and Palmer Town Manager Charles Blanchard. “This is way more than just a walk-in casino. It will have all the components of a resort destination that will bring people from miles and miles around,” Etess said. In the first year of the casino’s operation, the mitigation payment to the town would be $18 million based on gaming revenue. Mohegan officials asked for a referendum date of Nov. 5, which the Town Council approved last week. Mohegan Sun has proposed a nearly $1 billion resort casino on 152 acres owned by Northeast Realty across from the Massachusetts Turnpike exit 8. The plan faces competition for the sole Western Mass. casino license from MGM Resorts International in Springfield and Hard Rock New England in West Springfield. The state Gaming Commission is expected to award the license in April. In addition to the mitigation payments, the Mohegan Sun project is expected to generate an estimated $900,000 to $1.4 million in annual hotel-occupancy taxes and an additional $225,000 in annual meals taxes to the town. The agreement calls for more than $40 million in improvements to the town’s infrastructure system. The casino would feature 3,000 slot machines and 80 table games in an approximately 320,000-square-foot facility. Also included in the plan is a 250-room hotel and conference center, a casual-dining restaurant, and a fine-dining restaurant, as well as a 230,000-square-foot retail development featuring more dining options and other entertainment, and a second, 300-room hotel with a water park. More than 3,000 jobs are expected to be created between the casino, water park, and retail complex.

Mass. Medical Society Issues Guide to ACOs Targeted to Physicians
WALTHAM — The Mass. Medical Society has released a new publication for physicians and their practice managers, “MMS Guide to Accountable Care Organizations: What Physicians Need to Know.” The 49-page publication provides detailed guidance on the issues that physicians should consider whether they are currently participating in an accountable-care organization, forming or joining an ACO, or entering into an integration agreement with another healthcare organization. These issues include assessing the readiness of a practice to join an ACO, choosing the right ACO, how to approach an ACO, technology considerations, legal and governance issues, financial impacts, and achieving clinical integration. “It’s becoming more and more difficult for independent practices to compete effectively in today’s healthcare system,” said Dr. Ronald Dunlap, president of the Mass. Medical Society. “Many physicians are reassessing their role in this rapidly evolving system. For some, this means becoming an employee of a larger healthcare organization. Others may want to retain some of their professional autonomy, while integrating some aspects of their practice with an ACO. These are complex issues, and there is a great need for objective, third-party information. It’s our hope that this guide will help them in the decision-making process. The book was written for the MMS and its physicians by Chris Collins, a principal at ECG Management Consultants of Boston, and J. Mark Waxman, a senior partner in the Boston office of the law firm Foley & Lardner. It is available to MMS members at www.massmed.org/acoguide.

Springfield College Awarded Grant for School Partnership
SPRINGFIELD — Springfield College was awarded an $867,000 grant from the Mass. Department of Elementary and Secondary Education to fund a strategic partnership with Springfield Public Schools (SPS) to increase the number of teachers who are fully prepared and dedicated to meeting the challenges faced in high-need Level 3 and 4 SPS schools. The S3 (‘S Cubed’) program is designed to increase the pool of effective teachers in the hard-to-staff subject and specialty areas of mathematics and moderate disabilities (special education). The S3 program will serve a cohort of 25 SPS teachers who already hold their preliminary license. Teachers selected for the cohort will complete the Springfield College-approved initial licensure program to become fully certified. Grant funds will cover the cost of tuition for 24 of the graduate credits needed to complete the state licensure program. Springfield College will offer the balance of the coursework required for the master’s degree at a special rate of tuition. This innovative program includes the delivery of coursework that enables the cohort members to immediately put their learning into practice. S3 includes a value-added support system that provides each teacher with extensive, robust, on-site coaching. Springfield College Education Department faculty members will deliver coursework in the schools and provide on-site coaching to cohort members. “I am excited about being involved in this project because it enables Springfield College to strengthen its longstanding partnership with Springfield Public Schools to create a model program that has the potential to produce effective mathematics and special-education teachers who are committed to, and successful at, increasing student learning and academic achievement in the district for years to come,” said Linda Davis-Delano, Springfield College’s director of educator preparation, in describing the program. In addition to fostering more effective student learning in these priority fields, S3 incorporates elements of the district’s Springfield Effective Educator Development System, or SEEDS. This includes meeting the needs of all students, engaging families and communities, and developing professional learning communities, where teachers work together to help students achieve. “Both organizations, Springfield College and Springfield Public Schools, are deeply committed to the development and retention of highly effective, fully licensed teachers in high priority content areas and recognize the potential of the S3 Program’s innovative delivery model to support this undertaking,” said Davis-Delano.

Smith & Wesson Wins Bid to Produce Handguns for LA Police
SPRINGFIELD — The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has selected Smith & Wesson’s M&P 9 pistol as its new department-issued duty handgun, the company announced recently. The contract is for five years. The LA County Sheriff’s Department is the second-largest law-enforcement agency in the country, with 9,000 sworn deputies and 8,000 professional staff members. It provides general-service law enforcement to 43 municipalities encompassing more than 3 million people. The department had been using the Beretta Model 92. According to the Smith & Wesson press release about the contract, the department picked S&W after “rigorous testing against a wide range of competitive products” and that “the M&P pistol delivered superior results in the areas of quality and reliability.” Besides the handguns, Smith & Wesson will provide professional expertise and training to officers and the department’s armorers charged with the maintenance and supply of the department’s firearms.

Zasco Productions to Provide Display Support for Events at Big E
CHICOPEE — KMJ Video, the exclusive video-production provider of the Big E, has chosen Zasco Productions LLC to provide large-format outdoor video displays on their behalf in the Xfinity Arena. The 17-day festival, which boasted more than 1.3 million attendees last year, will serve as the debut event for Zasco’s new high-resolution, highly versatile LED video display. The ‘big screens’ will be used to deliver KMJ’s video to fans at the festival. “This is one of the biggest events in New England, so it’s a natural home for such a big piece of display technology,” said Zasco President and Owner Michael Zaskey. “The Big E has given music fans a series of outstanding shows in the Xfinity Arena every year, but audiences are demanding bigger and better productions, so it’s exciting to be part of something that will really take the visual experience to an even higher level.” The lineup for 2013 boasts veteran acts like former Eagle Don Felder and country legend Kix Brooks. The large, open-air venue inside the festival has seating for more than 6,000. Large, vibrant LED displays will enhance the viewing experience and bring each spectator closer to the stars, said Zaskey. Last month, Zasco Productions announced the acquisition of an LED display system from Oracle LED Systems of Los Angeles. The Black Widow HD9 product is a high-resolution, high-brightness display that can be used to display stunning video or graphics in any environment. The display panels are the same type as those installed permanently at outdoor entertainment destinations in Las Vegas.

Art in the Orchard
Through October: Park Hill Orchard, at 82 Park Hill Road, Easthampton, will play host to 22 sculptures by 22 artists through Oct. 31. Art in the Orchard 2013 is a multifaceted sculpture exhibition and festival taking place on the grounds of a working apple orchard. The core project is a sculpture trail showcasing three-dimensional outdoor works and installations created by local and regional artists. Additional events (such as music, moonlight walks, dances, and school field trips) will be programmed on most weekends. See parkhillorchard.com/art for more information on the artists, their works, and an event schedule. Art in the Orchard is building on the success of the first exhibition in 2011, which came to existence thanks to the desire of Park Hill Orchard owners Alane Hartley and Russell Braen to have their farm play an active part in the local cultural economy, and a dream of Easthampton gallery owner Jean-Pierre Pasche to recreate an outdoor sculpture exhibit like the one set in meadows near his hometown in Switzerland. The success of the 2011 event exceeded expectations, with thousands of visitors discovering the sculpture trail and Park Hill over the 10-week period, many returning more than once. This achievement was recognized by the Mass. Cultural Council, which awarded Art in the Orchard one of its three annual Gold Star Awards, out of more than 5,000 projects funded annually by local cultural councils statewide.

At Westfield State, a Large Case of Excess

There is little doubt that, since he arrived at the then Westfield State College campus in 2007, Evan Dobelle has done a number of things to raise the school’s profile and create a much stronger town-gown relationship.

For starters, he’s changed the school’s name to Westfield State University, something many institutions have done in recent years to make them themselves more marketable in foreign countries where the word ‘college’ simply doesn’t convey size or quality. He’s also undertaken a program to convert an old school building downtown into a dormitory, a move designed to make the school more visible and also a greater force in the local economy, while also building an elaborate new dorm on campus, one that comes with a $55 million price tag, part of an overall $170 million building program.

Such steps have earned him praise from many city and state officials, and Dobelle, never shy to tout his own accomplishments, recently told the Boston Globe that he’s made Westfield State the “hottest college in New England.”

Unfortunately for him, and the school, that quote appeared in a lengthy front-page Sunday Globe story that bore the headline “Where spending limits are purely academic.”

The piece chronicles years of lavish spending by Dobelle, including $8,000 for a four-night stay at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Bangkok (the bill amassed by a group that traveled there to promote the school and recruit Asian students), $10,000 for tickets to shows at Tanglewood, $4,000 for limousine rides, and much more, with many of these bills charged to the Westfield State Foundation.

That group essentially gave him a blank check to carry out his quest to remake the former teachers college into an educational powerhouse — and now it certainly has large amounts of regret; the foundation closed Dobelle’s credit card several years ago.

And it should have.

While Dobelle can seemingly defend any and all of his lavish spending — he said he put up a commencement speaker (and old friend) in a luxurious Lenox hotel because he wanted to build the school’s reputation — those at the foundation and many others at the school and on Beacon Hill now recognize that Dobelle has a real problem when it comes to spending other people’s money.

Actually, he’s had it throughout his career, as excessive spending was one of the reasons why he was fired by the University of Hawaii, although that school eventually rescinded the dismissal when Dobelle threatened to sue.

Westfield State probably doesn’t have to fire Dobelle, but it does have to take real steps to make sure this reckless pattern of spending is halted and that there is full disclosure about Dobelle’s travel records and his claims to have repaid the university for any and all personal expenses that were billed to the school.

Dobelle says he can justify all the expensive hotel rooms, travel, limo rides, and Tanglewood tickets as simply part of the enormous cost of taking this school to a much higher level. But no one can fully justify such excess when the school in question is a public university in a state with budget woes and many students who rely on aid and scholarships.

As we said at the top, Dobelle has done many good things at Westfield State, and has, indeed, raised the school’s profile. But the end doesn’t justify the means, and through his irresponsible spending, Dobelle has people talking about WSU again, but for all the wrong reasons.

He can change that conversation, but he needs to move quickly and decisively to restore trust.

‘Tech Tax’ Imperils State’s Growth

The prevailing opinion is that Florida Gov. Rick Scott didn’t do Massachusetts any favors recently when he sent out letters to 100 Bay State companies essentially inviting them to explore the Sunshine State and discover why it makes sense to move operations there.

Actually, however, he did the state a huge favor.

He reminded everyone on Beacon Hill of something they probably knew — although they don’t act like it: that business owners have options when it comes to choosing where to locate or launch, and Massachusetts is increasingly looking like a less-attractive option.

The timing of Scott’s letter coincides with implementation of the Bay State’s so-called ‘tech tax,’ or software tax, a levy on ‘computer software design services,’ a controversial measure that is being fought by business owners, economic-development groups, legislators, and other constituencies that understand that it is arbitrary, confusing, and threatens to stifle one of the strongest pillars of the state economy.

But the tech tax is just part of the story. The larger piece is that this state continues to believe that it can tax and spend without consequence. The truth is that it can’t, and Rick Scott’s aggressive actions simply provide more proof of that.

But let’s back up a minute.

Massachusetts is still an attractive state in which to live, work, and do business. There is an enviable quality of life here, dozens of fine colleges and universities, a host of cities and towns that could — and often do — make those ‘best places to live’ lists, and a strong, educated workforce.

Maintaining all this takes resources, and for the past several decades, elected officials have essentially said that the only way they want to amass these resources is through new and different ways to tax individuals and businesses.

Indeed, in addition to the tech tax, the state recently implemented higher levies on cigarettes and gasoline. You can go to those wells only so often (although, in this state, we do so frequently), so to fund needed infrastructure and transportation programs, the state looked in a different direction — its burgeoning tech sector and the services it provides.

This new levy might truly be a lucrative source of tax revenue (that’s might; no one really seems to know how much it will generate), but its implementation shows — again — that legislative leaders are shortsighted and unable to grasp the big picture.

Forty-six states don’t have tech taxes, and for one big reason: they’re trying to grow that sector, which is one of a few with vast potential for creating new jobs in the years and decades to come. Massachusetts leaders know this well — they’ve seen it first-hand — but they’re acting as if they’re taking this sector for granted and that they don’t take people like Rick Scott seriously.

They should.

And they can show that they mean business — in both a literal and figurative sense — by taking steps to indicate that they know and care about the fact that business owners really do have options. The place to start is with a move to repeal the tech tax, which threatens everything from the growth of existing companies to the prospects for new tech startups.

And from there, the legislature can take additional steps to counter what is perhaps the strongest line in Scott’s letter: “it’s bound to get worse in Massachusetts.”

Like we said, Scott did the state a favor. Let’s see if Massachusetts is smart enough to take advantage of that.

UMass Exploring Creation of Satellite Center in Downtown Springfield

The University of Massachusetts recently issued a request for proposals to lease classroom space in downtown Springfield, where it is considering locating a satellite center that would provide additional access to a high-quality, affordable education to Western Mass. residents and accelerate the university’s growing presence in the city and region. “We very much want to open a satellite center in Springfield because an essential aspect of our mission of service to the Commonwealth is working to build better lives and futures for people and communities, which is what this would represent,” said UMass President Robert Caret. “We know that the demand is there and that the business and political leadership supports it. The questions before us now are whether it is feasible to do this and whether there are sufficient resources available to help us meet this challenge.” He continued, “we view the issuance of the RFP as a critical next step in this process. We’re hopeful that the responses to it will begin to provide us with the clarity we need to move forward.” A study conducted last year by the UMass Donahue Institute, at Caret’s request, identified Springfield as a prime site for a satellite center in part because UMass Amherst, which would take the lead in overseeing it, already has a significant presence there. A number of UMass Amherst faculty and staff are engaged in Springfield in various ways, conducting research, teaching, or working in administrative capacities. They work in a variety of areas, including health, fine arts, creative economy, natural sciences, engineering and green industries, as well as management, sports, and education. UMass Amherst faculty and staff are involved in more than 120 programs in Springfield. UMass Amherst is also in the process of moving its public radio station, WFCR, from Amherst to Springfield. Last month, the Pioneer Valley Life Sciences Institute, a partnership between UMass Amherst and Springfield’s Baystate Medical Center, received a $5.5 million grant from the Massachusetts Life Sciences Center. But UMass officials would like to take the engagement a step further by establishing a base in Springfield that would serve as a general portal to the resources of UMass Amherst and the entire UMass system. The satellite center concept envisions courses being provided by at least several and possibly all five of the UMass campuses. Officials said that the RFP process should reveal whether UMass is able to obtain space in a suitable location at an affordable price, which will help determine whether UMass can move forward with the satellite center project.

 

Melin to Step Down as CDH President

NORTHAMPTON — Matthew Pitoniak, chair of the board of trustees of Cooley Dickinson Hospital, announced on July 29 that, after 25 years of exemplary leadership, Craig Melin will resign as president and CEO. The move will be effective Jan. 31, 2014. Pitoniak said the board is pleased that Melin will stay on for six months to complete initiatives under way that are critical to the transformation of Cooley Dickinson in the face of environmental changes in health care, as well as its recently finalized affiliation with Massachusetts General Hospital. Melin said he chose this time to plan his leave because he believes that Cooley Dickinson faces a five-year transition and that it should be under one leader. As he was not prepared to commit to a 30th anniversary, he told the board and Mass General that he wished to “step down to clear the way for someone who can make the new commitment Cooley Dickinson needs.” Pitoniak said Melin’s decision was unexpected. Dr. Peter Slavin, president of Mass General, said, “I was very surprised to hear about Craig’s decision to leave Cooley Dickinson, to which he has been so passionately committed for 25 years. While I’m not happy about losing him from our team, I am pleased that Craig has agreed to stay on while we search for a new CEO. Our work to realize the benefits of the new relationship between Cooley Dickinson and Mass General will continue uninterrupted. I look forward to working with Craig over the next six months.” Besides the recently completed affiliation with Mass General, CDH and Melin have been deeply engaged in strategic initiatives, such as preparing for population health management, repositioning the organization to meet the budget challenges of the new lower-priced payment system, and improving the organization’s already-intense focus on quality. Melin said, “It has been an honor to lead Cooley Dickinson for the past 25 years. I look forward to working with the trustees, physicians, staff, and Mass General so that Cooley Dickinson continues on the path toward more exceptional care and better health for our community.” Pitoniak said he will form and then chair a committee that will conduct a national search for Melin’s successor. Slavin will be actively involved in the process.

 

Investment in Structures Expands in 2nd Quarter

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Non-residential fixed investment in structures expanded 4.6% on an annualized basis during the second quarter of 2013, according to the July 31 gross domestic product (GDP) report by the U.S. Commerce Department. This increase followed a 4.6% decline in the first quarter of the year. Fixed investment in equipment rose 4.1% in the second quarter, and overall investment in structures expanded 6.8%. Residential fixed investment increased 13.4% following 12.5% expansion in the first quarter. Fixed investment in the nation’s residential sector has been growing at a double-digit clip since the third quarter of 2012. Personal-consumption expenditures expanded 1.8% in the second quarter, with spending on goods rising 3.4%. Expenditures on services, on the other hand, advanced only slightly at 0.9%. Expansion in real private inventories contributed 0.4 percentage points to real GDP growth for the second quarter after adding 0.9% during the first quarter. Federal government expenditures declined 1.5% during the second quarter primarily due to a 3.2% drop in non-defense spending. Meanwhile, national defense spending dropped 0.5%. State and local government spending rebounded mildly, growing only 0.3% during the second quarter following three consecutive quarters of declines. In total, real GDP expanded 1.7% during the second quarter following a revised 1.1% increase in the first quarter of the year. “Overall, consumer spending remains at the heart of the nation’s economic recovery, including in housing-related categories,” said Anirban Basu, chief economist of Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC). “However, today’s GDP report is only modestly reflective of recent increases in mortgage rates, which could soften residential investment growth in the months ahead. ABC continues to forecast roughly 2% growth in the U.S. economy in 2013, though the first half was associated with sub-2% growth. It remains likely that the economy will accelerate a bit during the second half of the year, but there continue to be headwinds such as rising interest rates, sequestration, and a loss in municipal confidence in the aftermath of Detroit’s bankruptcy.

 

Hiring Expected to Remain Stable in 2013

CHICAGO — U.S. workers can expect a stable employment environment over the next six months along with an upswing in temporary jobs. In CareerBuilder’s latest national survey, employers indicated that full-time, permanent hiring in the second half of 2013 will mirror that of 2012, while temporary and contract hiring is expected to increase 10% over last year. The survey, which was conducted online by Harris Interactive on behalf of CareerBuilder from May 14 to June 5, included more than 2,000 hiring managers and human-resource professionals across industries and company sizes. “Companies are adding more employees to keep pace with demand for their products and services, but they’re not rushing into a full-scale expansion of headcount in light of economic headwinds that still linger today,” said Matt Ferguson, CEO of CareerBuilder. “The projected surge in temporary hiring from July to December is evidence of both a growing confidence in the market and a recession-induced hesitation to immediately place more permanent hires on the books. However, the overall pace of permanent hiring is stronger today in various industries and geographies, and will continue on a path of gradual improvement for the remainder of the year.” Looking forward to the next six months, the study conducted by Harris Interactive shows that 44% of employers plan to hire full-time, permanent employees, on par with last year; 25% plan to hire part-time employees, up from 21% last year; and 31% plan to hire temporary or contract workers, up from 21% last year. In addition to recruiting for revenue-related functions such as sales and customer service, employers are placing an emphasis on roles involving newer technologies, big data, social media, and financial services. In the Northeast specifically, 43% of surveyed companies plan to hire full-time, permanent employees, down slightly from 44% in 2012.

 

IMF Forecasts Slow Global Growth

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The International Monetary Fund (IMF) forecasts slower global growth in 2013 and 2014 than it did just three months ago, citing the prospect of a slowdown in key developing countries such as China and Brazil and a protracted recession in Europe. The international lending agency released an update of its World Economic Outlook issued in April, projecting the world economy will grow at 3.1% this year, down from a 3.3% forecast three months ago. The 2014 projection was cut to 3.8% from 4.0%. “The world economy remains in a three-speed mode,” said Olivier Blanchard, IMF director of research, at a news conference. “Emerging markets are still growing rapidly. The U.S. recovery is steady, but much of Europe continues to struggle.” Blanchard said growth almost everywhere is weaker than forecast in April, but downward revisions are particularly noticeable in developing countries. The IMF said the possibility of a more drawn-out slowdown in developing countries is a new risk that has emerged since April. One potential drag on global growth is the possibility that the U.S. will start tapering its extraordinary stimulus program of bond buying. The Fed program — known as quantitative easing — has injected more $2 trillion into financial markets since late 2008 and kept borrowing costs down. With markets already anticipating the tapering, the IMF said some developing countries are already feeling the effects in the form of falling share prices and depreciating currencies. A recession in the 17 countries that use the euro currency is shaping up to be deeper than expected, another factor pulling down the forecast, according to the IMF. The U.S. economy also looks weaker than previously expected, the IMF said, citing tight fiscal and financial conditions. The IMF lowered forecasts for U.S. growth to 1.7% in 2013, down from 1.9% in April, and to 2.7% for 2014, down from 2.9%. One reason cited was the sequester remaining in place until 2014, longer than previously projected.

Building a Diverse Nursing Workforce

By CHERYL A. SHEILS

 
Healthcare reform presents new challenges and opportunities for the nursing profession, in both academic and practice settings. The Institute of Medicine (IOM) recently released its report, “The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health,” which included among its recommendations raising the education level of the nursing workforce.

The IOM recommends doubling the number of nurses with doctorates, and increasing the baccalaureate-prepared RN population to 80% from its present level of 50% by 2020.

The mandate for healthcare reform comes at a time of shifting population demographics.  According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Latinos now account for nearly 10% of the Massachusetts population.  Furthermore, the increase in the Latino population alone accounted for more than 60% of the state’s total growth between 2000 and 2009. Currently, nearly 21% of Hampden County is Latino.

Nursing’s leaders recognize a strong connection between a culturally diverse nursing workforce and the ability to provide quality, culturally competent healthcare to an increasingly diverse population. Unfortunately, national enrollment in baccalaureate nursing-education programs is not keeping up with the changes in population demographics. The American Assoc. of Colleges of Nursing’s 2011 annual report notes that Latinos account for just 6.8% of total baccalaureate enrollments. While these numbers reflect improvement over previous years, diversity of the RN workforce remains far less than that of the general U.S. population, and Latino RNs remain the most underrepresented minority group.

A main route to upward mobility and equality of opportunity for minorities in the healthcare industry is equity of access and success in achieving the baccalaureate nursing degree. A number of studies have shown that inadequate academic preparation and financial barriers are significant for Latino nursing students.

Here, taken from the higher-education literature as well as interviews with Latina nursing students, are recommendations for practitioners working in the field of higher education and, in particular, baccalaureate nursing-education programs.

• Establish seminars conducted by college financial-aid officers for low-income Latino families and students to provide them with information on how to finance a college education, including eligibility for Pell grants and assistance with the grant application process;

• Provide specific information to first-generation Latino students in secondary-education settings about how to set realistic goals for college, including what colleges and what careers to consider;

• Develop outreach programs with high schools in which student-affairs officers and college-student ambassadors help familiarize Latino high-school students and families with the various aspects of the college experience, with the added benefit of creating linkages between high-school and college students;

• Create credit-bearing college-transition programs that could be offered in 12th grade or during the summer before college to get Latino students ready for college-level work;

• Establish core groups of student advocates whose purpose it is to reach out to Latino students and help them connect with available resources on campus;

• Adopt proactive academic-advising systems that reach out to Latino students rather than waiting for a student to ask for help, and have bilingual staff available in academic-advising and resource centers;

• Establish connections with Latino nurses in the practice environment and with the local chapter of the National Assoc. of Hispanic Nurses for the purpose of developing a cadre of career mentors and professional role models;

• Create programs in which nursing graduate students advise and mentor undergraduate Latino students on earning credit toward their graduate degree;

• Provide professional-development programs that help nursing faculty examine their own attitudes regarding teaching diverse students and assist them in creating relevant cultural-competence curricula; and

• Place students in cohorts that follow the same course and clinical schedules throughout the nursing curriculum to facilitate the establishment of strong Latino nursing-student peer and study groups.

Zasco Productions Makes Key Acquisition

CHICOPEE — In business for nearly 25 years, Zasco Productions has made yet another significant equipment investment. After an exhaustive search for the best manufacturer/partner, Zasco decided to make a large purchase of indoor/outdoor display modules from Oracle LED Systems of Los Angeles. With a large inventory of LED panels in its Chicopee warehouse, the Zasco team will have more than enough stock to create two massive, 16-foot-wide video-display walls. The panels can be assembled in virtually any size or shape that creative designers can imagine. Rated at a resolution of 9mm, the system is sharp for viewing even in intimate venues. The panels boast a brightness rating of 7,000 nits, meaning they have plenty of punch for outdoor events. They are also weather resistant. “We have absolute confidence in this product because it’s obvious that it was designed by people who understand the demands of the live-event industry,” said Michael Zaskey, owner and senior technical director. “We now own bright, high-resolution displays that we can present to our clients in a simple way: the best visual value that they can put before their audience.” The popularity of giant LED displays has exploded recently because they give event planners opportunities to display video, graphics, live social-media boards, and sponsorships without the cost of huge soft goods or the challenges of projection, such as the battle to be seen against high volumes of ambient light. “We fully expect that, once people get a look at this display, it will set the standard for events across New England,” Zaskey said. “Once again, we’ve got the best technology in the hands of our team of creative professionals. Whether clients need all of our services, or just cutting-edge displays, we are ready to deliver unparalleled options and excellence.” Zasco Productions was honored as the 2007 Business of the Year by the Chicopee Chamber of Commerce. The company provides turn-key production solutions that include video, audio, lighting, rigging, and design services.

 

Women Entrepreneurs Launch Female-focused Marketing, Design Firm

NORTHAMPTON — Meghan Rothschild and Emily Gaylord recently announced the launch of Chikmedia, a marketing and design firm focused on helping women-run organizations create comprehensive marketing strategies. The two partners seek to improve marketing campaigns, target messaging, and create designs that reflect individual business personalities. Rothschild and Gaylord met four years ago through their work with a local nonprofit and have been working together ever since. “Chikmedia is a brainchild born from a casual conversation we were having one day,” said Gaylord. “We were both assisting individual businesses with marketing, PR, or design and relied on each other for professional input on the work we were
doing.” Said Rothschild, “something clicked. We immediately knew this could work, as we are both very committed to exceeding expectations. And we’re both hilarious.” The two immediately got to work on a business plan, realizing that female-run organizations were of high priority. “Women running and owning their own businesses is becoming increasingly more common,” said Rothschild. “It’s important to remember that we are a small, female-run business, so we understand the importance of finding your voice in this economy.” The pair is already working with a variety of clients, including everything from local talk shows to area authors; community nonprofits to major restaurant chains. Chikmedia recently launched its website — www.chikmedia.us —along with a Facebook page (facebook.com/chikmedia) and Twitter account (@chikmedia).

 

Holyoke Medical Center Ranks No. 1 in State for Quality of Stroke Care

HOLYOKE — The Stroke Collaborative Reaching for Excellence (SCORE), a voluntary statewide quality improvement collaborative administered by the Mass. Department of Public Health (DPH), which supports primary stroke-service hospitals, has once again ranked Holyoke Medical Center No. 1 out of 58 hospitals in the state of Massachusetts, including large teaching facilities, for stroke care. Defect-free care is achieved when a patient receives the appropriate care based on clinical guidelines. “Holyoke Medical Center is proud that our hard work and passion for providing great care was recognized by this prestigious award from the DPH’s SCORE program,” said HMC Stroke Program Clinical Manager Angela Smith. “We strive to provide exceptional care to all of our patients. This award represents that every stroke patient that comes through our doors receives the highest quality of care.” The rating evaluated adherence to 10 stroke-consensus measures and required that each stroke patient receive all 10 measures. Holyoke Medical Center had the highest score in the state. This was one of several awards the medical center received at the annual award ceremony of the American Heart/Stroke Assoc. and SCORE. The medical center also received awards for being the highest performer on the National Institute of Health (NIH) Stroke Scale, and the American Stroke Assoc. Get with the Guidelines Gold, Gold Plus, and Target Stroke Honor Roll awards for consistently exceeding quality-care benchmarks for stroke and administering the clot-busting drug t-PA within 60 minutes of hospital arrival.

Editorial

By
Opinion
An Opportunity for Springfield

Administrators with the University of Massachusetts made it official last week: they’re taking a serious look at broadening their presence in downtown Springfield with what is being called a possible ‘satellite center.’

The university issued a request for proposals, one that states that it is seeking 25,000 square feet of space suitable for classrooms, faculty offices, and other uses, with the option of doubling that space at a later date. Proposals are due Sept. 3, and it’s safe to say there will be quite a few of them to consider.

That’s because there are a number of potential landing spots for such a facility, ranging from Tower Square to Union Station; from 1350 Main St. to the properties in Court Square — and all of them could use the boost that a UMass presence would provide.

There has been speculation building about UMass doing ‘something’ in downtown Springfield for years now, and a few months ago we warned that such a facility, like a casino in some respects, would not magically transform the city or even its downtown, and that expectations for how a satellite center might change the landscape needed to be kept in perspective.

That said, a UMass satellite center could be one of many momentum generators in the city’s central business district, even if the university takes just 25,000 square feet, which amounts to one or two floors in most of the office buildings and facilities mentioned above.

For starters, creation of such a facility will require a substantial build-out, which will mean construction jobs. It could also change the complexion of some of those office buildings and landmarks. For example, it would provide a major boost for a Union Station project that is progressing, but still needs a spark to generate interest from more retailers. A facility in Tower Square, meanwhile, would generate some needed foot traffic and generate some life in a landmark that is still a shell of its former self and is dominated by vacant storefronts, although the presence of Cambridge College has provided a lift. For 1350 Main St., UMass might help turn on the lights in some floors that have been dark for the better part of a decade, while at Court Square, a center could provide a solid foundation for future development.

And there are many other sites that could come into the picture, with similar opportunities for progress.

Beyond the benefits to the real-estate market, a UMass satellite would generate other benefits. It would bring young people, many of them with money to spend, into downtown Springfield, and it would introduce them to a city they might otherwise not experience.

Depending on what types of programs and classes are offered downtown, there might be more and better opportunities for students to undertake internships with Springfield-based businesses and establish relationships that could last for years or decades.

Also, a UMass presence might even bolster efforts on the part of city officials to inspire market-rate housing projects in the downtown that would provide a balance for the subsidized units that still dominate the landscape in that part of the city.

All this is speculation, and a downtown Springfield UMass facility is likely years from opening its doors. But speculation is good, as long as people keep those expectations in check.

A UMass satellite center is certainly not going to be a game changer, to borrow the phrase that so many elected officials and economic-development leaders like to use these days.

But it would help Springfield ultimately win what isn’t a game, but a very important and very necessary endeavor to change the complexion of its central business district.

Springfield Voters OK MGM Proposal

SPRINGFIELD — Springfield voters went to the polls on July 16 and endorsed an $800 million casino proposal by MGM Resorts International. Voters supported the MGM plan by a vote of 13,973 to 10,260, with roughly 25% of registered voters turning out. MGM now moves to the next phase of the competition for the lone Western Mass. casino license — review by the Mass. Gaming Commission. The commission’s votes on licenses for three regions — Western Mass., Eastern Mass., and the southeastern part of the state — are expected in early 2014. MGM plans to build in the tornado-damaged South End neighborhood — more specifically, a multi-block area between State and Union streets, Main Street, and East Columbus Avenue.

 

West Springfield Voters to Consider Casino Question on Sept. 10

WEST SPRINGFIELD — The West Springfield Town Council voted unanimously to set Sept. 10 as the date for a referendum on Hard Rock Hotel & Casino New England’s proposal to build an $800 million casino project near the Big E. Many of the 60 onlookers at the vote wore T-shirts reading “Westside Support Hard Rock, Yes.” One council member was absent. Hard Rock would like to construct a destination resort casino project on 38 acres on the Eastern States Exposition campus off Memorial Avenue. Plans include a 12-story hotel, a Hard Rock Café, and a parking deck. Hard Rock has also taken out options to buy property along Circuit Avenue to use for additional parking. West Springfield voters must approve the project for it to move ahead. The Massachusetts Gaming Commission may authorize up to three casinos in the state, with one slated for Western Mass. In another recent vote, Springfield voters approved the project proposed by MGM Resorts International to build a casino in the city’s South End.

 

PVPC ‘State of the People’ Report Receives Award

SPRINGFIELD — The Pioneer Valley Planning Commission has been selected as the recipient of the 2013 Medium Metro General Achievement Award by the National Association of Regional Councils (NARC). PVPC received the award in June at NARC’s 47th annual conference and exhibition in Philadelphia. The award recognizes the 10-year update of the “State of the People of the Pioneer Valley” report, which provides simple and familiar images to help evaluate eight categories of health and well-being indicators for the people who live in the region: children and youth; the elderly population; education; health and safety; economic security; housing; civic, arts, and recreation; and the environment. Each indicator is evaluated with a letter grade, and maps are provided to examine equity by comparing communities throughout the region. A unique function of this report is that it evaluates every topic area as well as each individual indicator with a letter grade (A-F), making it easier to quickly get a sense of the trends described by the data. Grades incorporate trends for the region over time, the Pioneer Valley’s comparison to rates statewide, and two measures of equity between the communities within the region. The report is the product of a vibrant working partnership among eight of the major foundations, hospitals, and planning organizations in the Pioneer Valley, including the Beveridge Family Foundation Inc., the Community Foundation of Western Mass., Cooley Dickinson Hospital, the Irene E. and George A. Davis Foundation, the Franklin Regional Council of Governments, Partners for a Healthier Community Inc., the United Way of Hampshire County, and the United Way of Pioneer Valley. “This expansive collaboration is the result of many regional partners coming together with the goal of having available good, accessible, and easy-to-comprehend data about the trends in our region,” said PVPC Executive Director Timothy Brennan. “The hope is that this data will help drive strategic decision making for funding, planning, and service organizations, and that having a shared understanding of the state of our people will give us a shared sense of goals for our region.” The National Assoc. of Regional Councils (NARC) serves as a national voice for regionalism by advocating for regional cooperation as the most effective way to address a variety of community planning and development opportunities and issues. In service to this mission, the NARC General Achievement Awards recognize excellence in programs and services of regional councils and metropolitan planning organizations across the U.S., thereby contributing to better and more efficient government. In past years, PVPC has submitted successful NARC annual award nominations for Valley Vision 2, the regional land-use plan for the Pioneer Valley region (in 2008); for the Plan for Progress, the region’s economic-development plan (in 2005); and on behalf of the Mass. Assoc. of Regional Councils, of which PVPC is a member (in 2004). The 2013 “State of the People” report is available at www.pvpc.org/stateofthepeople.

Baystate Recognized by U.S. News & World Report

SPRINGFIELD —  Baystate Medical Center has been named a “top hospital” — the third-best hospital in Massachusetts — in U.S. News & World Report’s 24th annual “Best Hospitals” ranking, recognizing hospitals that excel in treating patients who need an especially high level of care. U.S. News & World Report ranks up to 50 hospitals in each of 16 medical specialties. Only 147 out of nearly 5,000 U.S. hospitals earned national ranking in one or more of the specialties. Baystate Medical Center’s ranking, up from fifth-best hospital in last year’s Best Hospitals report, is a testament to the hard work and dedication of all Baystate employees in making quality and patient safety second to none, noted Dr. Evan Benjamin, senior vice president, Healthcare Quality, Baystate Health. “What our high ranking means for patients is that Baystate Medical Center is recognized nationally as one of the safest hospitals in the country in terms of outcomes and avoiding serious medical errors. This latest honor is just one of many national awards and recognitions Baystate Medical Center has received over the past years for its high quality of care. Providing world-class healthcare close to home in Western Mass. not only represents the fulfillment of our mission, it also helps to keep our Pioneer Valley community strong in terms of our overall health, economy, and quality of life.” Baystate Medical Center was ranked nationally in diabetes and endocrinology (29th), ear, nose, and throat (26th), and pulmonology (42nd). The hospital also was recognized as “high-performing” in cancer, cardiology and heart surgery, gastroenterology and GI surgery, geriatrics, gynecology, nephrology, neurology and neurosurgery, orthopedics, and urology. “The mission of Best Hospitals is to help guide patients who need a high level of care because they face a particularly difficult surgery, a challenging condition, or added risk because of other health problems or age,” said Avery Comarow, U.S. News Health Rankings editor. “Patient survival and safety data, the adequacy of nurse-staffing levels, and other objective data largely determined the rankings in most specialties.” The research organization RTI International in Research Triangle Park, N.C., conducted the physician survey and produced the Best Hospital methodology and national rankings under contract with U.S. News. The magazine separately published the “Best Children’s Hospitals 2013-2014” rankings last month, where Baystate Children’s Hospital was ranked 34th in pediatric diabetes and endocrinology.

SPRINGFIELD — The Springfield Falcons earned an American Hockey League Team Business Services Award recently. The team was honored as the Eastern Conference franchise with the most revenue growth in group ticket sales from the previous season. The awards recognize outstanding achievements in a variety of categories. The Falcons also won two team-achievement awards at the league’s marketing meetings in Cleveland; it was recognized for exceeding a 20% growth in group ticket sales revenue and 10% growth in per-game, full-season equivalents. “We are extremely proud of the work our front and ticket sales staff accomplished off the ice this season,” said Chris Thompson, vice president of Business Development for the Falcons. “Customer service will continue to be a high priority within the organization. The upcoming 20th anniversary season is sure to be an exciting time as we focus on increasing in-game entertainment for our fans.”

 

HMC, Language Access Network to Partner in Communication Project

HOLYOKE — Holyoke Medical Center has recently implemented the video interpreting services of the Language Access Network (LAN). The new partnership will address patients with limited English proficiency and the deaf and hard-of-hearing populations. LAN currently provides services in more than 300 medical facilities nationwide with around-the-clock access to the highest-quality trained interpreters available via its centralized video language centers. “Our mission from day one at Holyoke Medical Center has been to serve the health needs of the community in a high-quality and efficient manner,” said Rafael Mojica, manager of Community Outreach Services at Holyoke Medical Center. “The partnership with LAN will provide unique insights to improve overall patient satisfaction for the LEP and deaf and hard-of-hearing patients and help them receive the high standard of care to which they are entitled.” MARTTI (My Accessible Real Time Trusted Interpreter) is LAN’s exclusive platform for providing immediate access to high-quality interpretation resources with one-button simplicity and full mobility throughout the hospital. A revolutionary mobile device, MARTTI provides an easy-to-use, on-demand, qualified medical interpreter service using LAN’s dedicated, HIPAA-compliant, high-speed broadband network. “Patients benefit from the MARTTI device by receiving high-quality care without impediments due to language barriers,” said Andrew Panos, chief operating officer of LAN. “By providing patients with real-time video and audio interpretation capabilities in more than 200 languages, our health-provider facilities are able to improve operations, enhance financial performance, and build trusted patient encounters through clear communication.”

Schiff will lead the program after a successful tenure as executive director of the Jewish Federation of the Berkshires, where she worked since 2001. At the federation, she increased the donor base and fund-raising substantially and directed many community initiatives. Nationally, she has been active in Jewish community service with the Jewish Federations of North America. Locally, she has served on the Berkshire Housing Development Corp., the Berkshire Immigrant Center Advisory Board, the Lenox School Committee, and others. The Life & Legacy is a partnership program that invites up to seven communities a year to apply to partner with HGF. The foundation commits funds to the selected program for two years. If fund-raising goals are met, the partner receives a matching grant from HGF that covers 50% of the partner agency’s annual budget, up to $150,000, for each year. In this first year, the partners are the Foundation for the Charlotte Jewish Community, the Jewish Foundation of Memphis, the Greater Miami Jewish Federation, the Jewish Foundation of Greater New Haven, the Orange County Jewish Community Foundation, the Oregon Jewish Community Foundation, and the Jewish Community Foundation of Greater Mercer.

We welcome the opportunity to build on that and other clinical services.”

Editorial

Opinion
Lessons from Detroit — and Springfield

The numbers are exponentially greater — well, more than exponentially: $19 billion as opposed to several hundred million — but there are a great many similarities between what happened in Detroit earlier this month and what occurred in Springfield nearly a decade ago.

Putting it simply, both cities just bottomed out. Like the elderly woman in that famous TV commercial, they had fallen, and they couldn’t get up, at least not without extraordinary measures — a union-crunching control board in Springfield and a record-setting bankruptcy in the Motor City. And neither development came about overnight; they were both a long time in coming.

Indeed, there are many reasons why these great cities wound up in those somewhat similar situations. Start with mismanagement — Detroit built what amounted to a monorail to nowhere and made promises to unions it knew it couldn’t keep, and Springfield simply spent far more money than it had for way too long. But there was also white flight and the demise of the middle class in both communities, rampant crime, and serious declines in tax revenue as both residents and businesses moved elsewhere.

But maybe the biggest reason why both communities hit bottom with such loud thuds was that what had been entrepreneurial cities — perhaps two of the most entrepreneurial cities in the nation’s history — more or less stopped being entrepreneurial. And this is a lesson that must be learned by communities across the country.

Detroit started with carriages and engines for boats, and eventually, people like Henry Ford started putting engines in carriages, and the fortunes of that city dramatically changed. By the 1950s, nearly 2 million people were calling Detroit home (the population is now down to 700,000) and the city was among the most prosperous in the country.

Springfield started with the Armory, and the spirit of innovation soon spread throughout the city. Entrepreneurs started businesses that made everything from revolvers to toys; ice skates to trolley cars; monkey wrenches to parking meters.

Only a few of those items are still made here, because much of the manufacturing in the Northeast went to southern states or overseas. And the jobs that went with those companies simply haven’t been replaced.

Why? There are many reasons, but a big one is that this region, and Springfield in particular, has put too much emphasis on trying to bring businesses here rather than build businesses here.

It all comes back to being entrepreneurial, a character trait that Springfield, Detroit, and many other struggling cities have lost. And that’s the lesson other former manufacturing centers, including some of the Gateway cities in this region, must learn.

One source of inspiration could be Holyoke, a city that suffered from many of the same problems as Springfield and Detroit, although it has avoided full economic collapse.

There, the city is using the new Massachusetts Green High Performance Computing Center and an emerging cultural community to begin the process of filling millions of square feet of old mill space with small, often technology-related businesses, related service businesses, apartments, and condos. It will be a slow process, but the outlook is quite promising.

Springfield will have to do something similar, even if an $800 million casino emerges in the tornado-ravaged South End, as MGM hopes it will. That’s because a casino won’t change the city’s fortunes — it will only help change its fortunes.

As for Detroit … well, bankruptcy will offer the opportunity to start over. What the city does with that opportunity remains to be seen, but whatever happens will certainly take decades to emerge.

That’s OK, because it took decades for Detroit, Springfield, and other old industrial cities to complete their fall and hit bottom.

That’s what happens when entrepreneurial cities stop being entrepreneurial.

Gateway Cities Don’t Need Silver Bullet

By ALAN MALLACH and LAVEA BRACHMAN

 

They have been called shrinking cities and gateway cities. But by any label — our preferred term is ‘legacy cities’ — medium-sized metropolitan areas struggling with manufacturing decline and population loss are a never-ending project in many parts of the country, including Massachusetts.

Almost every year, some silver bullet — a sports arena, a casino, a conference center — promises salvation and rebirth for Brockton, Lawrence, New Bedford, Springfield, or Pittsfield. Avoiding the fate of Detroit, which just filed for bankruptcy, only adds to the pressure for a big solution.

The truth is, the silver-bullet syndrome can inhibit revitalization. A megaproject can become an important asset, but it is not a strategy for change in itself, unless it is integrated into larger schemes to make a meaningful contribution to the city’s future. A more incremental approach built on collaboration and partnerships holds more promise for rebuilding.

The way forward may look more like silver buckshot — with a focus on these key areas:

• Have faith in downtowns. The physical fabric of the central core, with density, a walkable urban texture, and proximity to major institutions and employers, is a powerful attraction for young single people and couples, and a strong basis for residential redevelopment. Set a friendly regulatory environment for infill redevelopment, reinvent public spaces, and encourage private market reuse of older buildings.

• Sustain viable neighborhoods. In these targeted areas, build partnerships with neighborhood associations and community-development corporations to implement multifaceted neighborhood strategies that draw demand, rebuild housing markets, and address destabilizing elements such as crime, foreclosure, and property abandonment.

• Don’t be afraid to demolish. Repurposing large inventories of vacant land strategically is a major springboard for change in heavily disinvested areas. Cities should explore large-scale reconfiguration of land uses, including the use of vacant land properties for public open space, urban agriculture, or stormwater management.

• Reinvent the economic base. Not every city can become the next biotech capital. But an honest assessment of local assets and regional competitive advantages can help build new export-oriented economies. Partner with local educational institutions and major employers to build an educational and workforce-development plan and a competitive regional labor market.

• Build new partnerships. In almost every city, universities and medical centers — ‘eds and meds’ — are bedrock institutions, part of a foundational network of public, nonprofit, and private collaboration. Similarly, state and federal governments must rethink their roles, becoming more nimble, more effective, and less biased toward suburban areas.

• Make sure all city residents benefit from change. Many cities are fractured, with large and growing economic and racial disparities. Engaging residents, and providing the educational and workforce-development systems they need to become competitive, can build a stronger city for everyone.

While legacy cities and their regions are already inextricably linked by social and economic realities, far more must be done to make these connections positive forces for regenerating both the city and the rest of the region. Public-policy changes at both state and national levels should be pursued to foster greater regional integration. Regionalized infrastructure, particularly transit, sewer, and water systems, should be encouraged to strengthen city and regional ties that foster economic growth.

All this may sound as if so many pieces need to fall in place. They do. Yet, an approach we call ‘strategic incrementalism’ can help keep the momentum going. Rather than devote significant time and resources to large-scale, comprehensive planning, legacy cities should focus on building partnerships, supporting multiple initiatives, and more organically internalizing a shared vision for the future.

America’s legacy cities were once the great economic engines of this country. The right mixture of new forms and directions, fueled by their powerful assets and historic can-do culture of achievement, can provide the springboard for a new era of prosperity.
