City of Mounds View Comprehensive Plan <br />________________________________________________________________________ <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />95 <br />• Due to the potentially high cost of some of the available methods of aggressively recruiting <br />the most attractive new business prospects and/or marketing Mounds View as a business <br />location, investigate and use the more cost-effective and/or more carefully targeted <br />recruitment/marketing techniques. <br /> <br />• Inasmuch as limited funds are available for the funding of business incubator programs, <br />enterprise facilitation projects or other initiatives designed to help new businesses get <br />started locally, <br /> <br />• Pursue grants to fund such programs, <br />• Establish collaborations with other governmental entities and non-profit organizations, <br />and <br />• Serve as a clearinghouse for information about assistance (financial and otherwise) that <br />may be available from sources other than the City. <br /> <br />• In light of the limited selection of tools that are available to the City to finance or promote <br />economic development, monitor developments affecting economic development and (where <br />appropriate) make recommendations regarding alternative, new or improved methods of <br />providing advice, assistance or encouragement. <br /> <br />• Due to the high cost of redeveloping property vs. developing property, participate in seeking <br />creative solutions to the financing challenges inherent in potential redevelopment projects. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
