Take a Ride on the Business Side - Input for Comp Plan

May Member Meeting May 11th - The City of Saint Paul is updating its Comprehensive Plan for 2040, the City's "blueprint" for guiding the physical development and capital improvement of Saint Paul over the next 20 years. The current plan is available  here: St. Paul Comprehensive Plan.
 
In partnership with ESABA, PABA, and West 7th  Business Association, the City's Business Review Council (BRC) is hosting a conversation with businesses to discuss the following questions:
  • What are the key issues affecting your business success and/or the occupancy of your building over the next 10-20 years?
  • How does transportation (including transit, bikes and pedestrian facilities) impact your business? How does it impact your ability to recruit and retain employees, or to move product, or to attract customers?
  • How does the availability of affordable housing choices impact your business?  Is there a relationship between transportation and housing costs for your employees or customers?
