Summary

Council tasked the Economic Development Advisory Committee (EDAC) to draft a business survey for council review by Dec. 31, with plans to distribute via town channels and consider a follow-up town-hall or results session.

Councilors directed EDAC and staff to develop a business-survey plan to gauge local business needs and interest in town-level engagement. Council member (S1) and others emphasized leveraging existing contact lists (business-license contacts), social media and the town's newsletter or utility-bill mailers to reach owners.

The council set an internal timeline: EDAC to provide a draft for council review by Dec. 31, council to approve survey and then aim to publish results and host an outreach event (town-hall or coffee) in the first quarter following distribution. Staff flagged data-privacy constraints and recommended an opt-in or opt-out approach and including a survey question about a desire for a follow-up meeting or lunch.
