What do you think of your business’ financial outlook? Declining
If declining, why and what could the City do to help? We need to promote redwood City as the epicentre of startups and entertainment, also a great place to live and do business. We reached a pick on 2018-2019 and we had not been able to reach again during and after covid. Weather, economy, housing, inflation, politics are definitely making things harder. As I mentioned, promoting, events, keeping our city safe, clean, vibrant, bringing more retail stores and supporting existing business owners with their specific needs...Also, either a digital friendly directory for visitors to find businesses and parking while in downtown.

Are there any other comments that you would like to share with the City’s Economic Development team? in regards of the closure of of 2000 block on Broadway St.:
- if closure is convenient for everyone and a 24ft safety lane is needed in middle of the street is needed, why not use all the sidewalks for sitting or businesses use? pedestrians can easily enjoy the walk in the middle lane...
-if is too difficult to let us use the entire front sidewalks we are better of opening the streets for traffic and just use the front of the parking spaces to build parklets...

Is there another form of free business assistance that you are interested in? I would be willing to partner with local artists such as hanging local art (view or for sale) in my showroom. Or offer incentives to people who live locally. Seems like the city only promotes businesses in downtown. I have offered to host Chamber events.
Are there any other comments that you would like to share with the City’s Economic Development team? My largest concern is the lack of large retail space in Redwood City. Retail space is being replaced by housing with no replacement for retailers. I feel like we will be forced out of the city soon. I feel like the city ignores small businesses that are not downtown.
