Economic incentive opinions? We’ve got a survey for you.
Tuesday, August 1, 2017 by Elizabeth Pagano
Yesterday, the city launched a survey in an effort to seek input on “refining Austin’s workforce, recruitment and expansion policy for businesses.” In slightly less intimidating terms, the city is looking for public input on its economic incentives (also known as Chapter 380 programs). The survey, which is not for the faint of heart, is available online here. Basically, it asks you to weigh in on what the city should prioritize in public-private partnerships in the future. Good luck.
