Update to the Downtown Market Study In addition to marketing the City owned property in downtown, the City updated an existing market study for the downtown area funded by a Metropolitan Council Livable Communities Grant. Maxfield Research Inc. completed a market study in 2005 and was engaged to update the study in 2013. The scope of the market study included demographics, market conditions, and evalua- tion of the market potential for commercial uses. There is exciting information on the study for the market demand in downtown Hugo. The full market study is available on the City website un- der Economic Development. For information on proper- ties for sale and lease in Hugo, please contact City Plan- ner Rachel Juba at 651-762-6304.
