Business Impact Survey

Since the beginning of Stay at Home orders implemented as the result of the COVID-19 pandemic, businesses have been impacted in a variety of circumstances. As your colleagues and neighbors, the City is committed to advocating for and supporting our local community in the most effective manner possible.

The Business Impact Survey will provide valuable data for the City to use to strategize a plan for our community as we move into the next stages of recovery. Your answers will be confidential and will be used for informational purposes only.
