A RESOLUTION SUPPORTING THE KENDALL COUNTY
COMMUNITY ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN
DATED DECEMBER 2011
WHEREAS, the economic recession has negatively impacted job opportunities and
employment throughout the County; and
WHEREAS, the loss of job opportunities is a serious menace to the health, safety,
morals and general welfare of the people of Kendall County. In fact, a 2010 County-wide
survey revealed that jobs and related economic development issues were the top priority for
County residents; and
WHEREAS, protection against the economic burdens associated with the loss of
permanent job opportunities, the consequent spread of economic stagnation and the resulting
harm to the tax base of the County can best be provided by promoting, attracting, and retaining
industry, manufacturing, and commerce within the County; and
WHEREAS, the United City of Yorkville hereby acknowledges that regional
cooperation in attraction of new businesses and industries can be both cost effective and
mutually beneficial; and
WHEREAS, the United City of Yorkville wishes to explore further opportunities to
work cooperatively with other Kendall County governments, as well as the private sector, to
promote expansion of business and industry to the region; and
WHEREAS, the Kendall County Community Economic Development plan provides a
good starting point to focus efforts to attract and retain jobs.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Mayor and City Council of the United
City of Yorkville, Kendall County, Illinois, as follows:
Resolution No. 2012-07
