This bill streamlines the state economic strategic plan and the annual report by the Department of Economic and Community Development in order to make them clearer and more focused, and eliminates certain other reports by the department. The key provisions include: - Modifying the required content and timing of the Department of Economic and Community Development's annual report to focus on the state's economy, the department's economic and community development activities and investments, and its tourism and entertainment industry-related efforts. - Revising the requirements for the state's economic development strategic plan, including reducing the planning period from 20 years to an unspecified "future" timeframe, and simplifying the required content. - Eliminating certain other reporting requirements for the department, such as the report on the state's defense industry dependency. The overall effect is to streamline and focus the department's reporting requirements to provide more concise and relevant information to the legislature and the public.
