Western Nevada Development District (WNDD) represents eight counties, one municipality, seven cities, and one tribe.

The CEDS is a locally based, regionally driven economic development planning process and document that successfully engages the region’s community leaders, private sector partners, and stakeholders. This framework enables the region and its partners to strengthen their leverage and expand regional capacity to attract outside resources to build a sustainable and resilient economy. The result creates an economic roadmap to expand and strengthen the regional economy and to qualify the region for additional funding assistance from the Economic Development Administration of the U.S. Department of Commerce (EDA) and other federal agencies.
