and growing in Delray Beach, Florida. This new level of service,<br />
provided by the Delray Beach Office of Economic Development<br />
(OED), is designed to help businesses better understand ‘who is<br />
who and what is what’ as they seek to obtain licenses, permits,<br />
approvals, utilities, inspections and other services from the City<br />
of Delray Beach.<br />
“We have more than 18 departments, divisions and offices<br />
who on any given day are assisting our new and local businesses,”<br />
said Joan K. Goodrich, Economic Development Director.<br />
“At times, it can be overwhelming to know what’s needed<br />
and the next step in the process. OED, along with our City colleagues,<br />
will provide more clarity, guidance and advice on how<br />
to achieve a quicker, successful outcome so they can get back to<br />
running their business.”<br />
Business Navigator is a direct response to feedback received<br />
from local small business owners, entrepreneurs and<br />
executives who explained that if they knew more about the<br />
right sequencing of City processes when they were opening or<br />
expanding, it would have helped them make better decisions<br />
with their teams.<br />
“We realize time is precious,” stated Elizabeth Burrows,<br />
Economic Development Manager and Business Navigator. “If<br />
we can help our businesses find their best path forward more<br />
quickly, our economy will grow and as a result our community<br />
benefits.”<br />
Businesses seeking Business Navigator services should call<br />
