11. Role of Federal Policy in Inner City Economic Development
Overview
• Healthy regional economies are necessary for inner city economic growth
– A shift from national to regional economic development is critical
• Regional economic growth alone is not sufficient to ensure inner city
economic development
– Regional policy frameworks must be augmented with specific policy approaches
for inner city economies
• Federal policy should enable inner city economic development by
strengthening the inherent competitive advantages of inner cities while
addressing weaknesses
– Inner city stagnation reflects waning competitive advantages, especially in
workforce development and infrastructure
• Specific public-private initiatives focused on inner city clusters will have the
greatest leverage for business development
– Inner cities have inherent advantages in those clusters that require access to
infrastructure nodes, anchor institutions, and available workforce

30. Infrastructure and Inner City Economic Development
• Infrastructure density
– Density of infrastructure provides multiple access points to local, national, and international
economies
– Density means that inner city infrastructure weaknesses harm the entire region’s infrastructure
efficiency for business
• The quality of the infrastructure network relies on the surrounding local road system
– The quality of local infrastructure (roads, bridges) influences the value of nearby regional
and international infrastructure
• Infrastructure weaknesses are hurting competitive advantage
– The overall quality of national infrastructure has declined over the past decade
– The quality of urban infrastructure relative to rural has likely declined
– We hypothesize that there has been a decline in inner city infrastructure relative to the
rest of the central city

38. Increasing Capital Flow to Inner City Economies
Current Federal Initiatives
• Recruitment (“outside-in”) strategies that provide tax incentives and regulatory
relief to attract outside businesses to distressed areas
– New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC)
– Renewal Communities/Empowerment Zones (RC/EZ)
• Federal contracting opportunities for small business concerns in distressed
communities or owned by socially and economically disadvantaged persons
– SBA 8a Program (demographically-based)
– SBA HUBZone Empowerment Contracting Program (place-based)
• Access to credit (loan size <$1M) for small businesses and minority
entrepreneurs
– SBA guaranteed lending programs (7a, 504)
– Community Reinvestment Act (CRA)

Recommendations

Growth Capital
• Create incentives and/or • Conduct research on valuation
• Federal coordination with
remove barriers to models for assessing inner
local authorities to inform
investment in inner city city risk
businesses about available
support and financing areas through e.g.: - Credit scores alone
- Tax credits
options penalize lower-asset
- Lower regulatory barriers
for individual investors individuals
• Increase funding for
business development • Extend and promote the New - Conventional site
within SBA 8a program Markets Tax Credits (NMTC) location models may
for business investment understate inner city
economic potential
• Reduce red tape and
transactions costs for SBA
loans
• Growth capital remains an issue for firms without access to strong advisory services,
personal assets, and “friends and family” capital

42. Cluster Development
• Clusters increase productivity and new business formation
– Efficient access to specialized inputs, services, employees, information, institutions,
training programs, and other “public goods”
– Easier commercialization of new products and greater opportunities for starting new
companies due to available skills, suppliers, etc.
• Cluster policy leverages policy investments over numerous companies
– Investments in training, information, export promotion, etc. will benefit many companies
across a range of industries
• Cluster policies are less distortive than those aimed at individual industries or
firms
• Cluster policy does not pick winners

43. Clusters and Federal Economic Development Strategy
Current Initiatives
• The current state of Federal cluster policy is weak
– “U.S. federal government has been almost entirely absent from the realm of
cluster initiative programs” (Mills, et al. 2008)
– In 2006, only $565 million out of $76 billion in federal spending on economic
development supported collaboration and clusters
– Some exceptions:
• WIRED: Collaborative approach to regional development; many efforts, e.g., West
Louisville, are organized around clusters
• SECTORS (July, 2008): “Strengthening Employment Clusters to Organize Regional
Success”; DOL; training skilled worker to address shortages; “grantees are required to
identify targeted industry clusters”
• However, there is growing role of cluster thinking in economic development
