City of San Leandro <br />Meeting Date: October 22, 2012 <br />Staff Report <br />File Number: 12-504 Agenda Section: WORK SESSION <br />Agenda Number: 2.A. <br />TO: City Council <br />FROM: Chris Zapata <br />City Manager <br />BY: Cynthia Battenberg <br />Business Development Manager <br />FINANCE REVIEW: Not Applicable <br />TITLE: Presentation by the San Leandro Chamber of Commerce and City Staff on <br />Business Assistance and Retention Efforts <br />In June 2012, staff provided an update to the City Council on major projects throughout the <br />City. The projects directly support both the attraction and retention of new businesses by <br />improving our infrastructure, offering desirable retail experiences and opportunities for <br />businesses to grow and expand in San Leandro. <br />In additional to capital projects, there are many on-going City initiatives to support existing <br />local businesses. The October 22 work session will focus on these initiatives using the <br />framework of the City's Economic Development Strategy which identifies the following four <br />policy areas: <br />• Sustaining Economic Growth; <br />• Reinvesting in San Leandro; <br />• Enhancing the Local Tax Base; <br />• Improving Community Life. <br />Additionally, Dave Johnson, CEO of the San Leandro Chamber of Commerce will present <br />information on the Chamber's activities. The San Leandro Chamber serves over 500 <br />members and connects companies and organizations to identify opportunities and solve <br />problems. With an understanding that between 70% and 90% of new jobs come from <br />expansion of existing companies within the community, the Chamber has numerous programs <br />that focus on business retention and support. These include: <br />• Forums committed to fostering a support system for small businesses; <br />• Celebrating new and growing businesses; and <br />• Telling the exciting San Leandro story. <br />City of San Leandro Page 1 Printed on 10/16/2012 <br />
