The City's objectives in these areas are to provide for economic base entrancement activities which implies the provision of newjobs to the area as one overriding principle. A corollary to this umbrella policy is the assumption that in many cases the private sector can provide the benefits from retail and smite activities, for example, in a variety of appropriate locmions within the City. Consideration ofprojec6 involving the general service sector should take into acwwt the current availability of such services within the community and the current level of competition. For i usence, given the continuative private market for uses that arc primarily retail or automotive, such uses would atonally Rot be considered appropriate uses for the Telcom Drive Development parcels. The City's policy should be to not moral assistance an businesses in direct competition with other existing businesses, especially retail operatives. It is Ne City's preference to provide assistance only when necessary for location of new busimsses that help diversify the local ecommy by offering services or prodwing products not presently provided or produced by other area employers. • Therefore, the City's engagements in the land development market should be for activities uniquely suimd an the greater Airport location, nougat • For investment in growth sector activities which have the potential of providing long-term stimulus to the local economy and help diversify the local economy and/or • For the establishment of well payingjob opportunities in a strong, stable economic enterprise. Finally, as w important element of economic development policy to insure the future viability and madcembibty of City [birds cod City sponsored development and, particularly, to protect and enhance both the image and the functionality of Bangor International Airport, a very significant "gateway" to the City and to the region, the City should require a high quality of development of its sums, above and beyond minimum oMinance developmernstenderds.
