A Message to Our Business Community


Greetings All,

It’s David Donery, the Town Manager for San Anselmo. I want to share with you, our local business community, work that we have been doing in an effort to provide you support and assistance during this difficult time.

I know that you have all been inundated with information regarding the various programs that are available to business owners, and we recognize how difficult it is to navigate this information and at the same time try and keep your business and family afloat.
I have heard from some of you personally and appreciate your candor in sharing your struggles. As a Town, we want to help make a difference and help you get through the Shelter-in-Place Order while keeping your business viable in whatever ways we can, including supporting local efforts such as SanAnselmoEats.com, SanAnselmoShops.com and #SanAnselmoStrong.

The San Anselmo Economic Development Committee has convened a subcommittee that is committed to finding ways to provide meaningful support. This team has put together a program, The San Anselmo COVID-19 Business Support Initiative, that we hope can help connect you to direct and tangible assistance, link you to local opportunities to get your questions answered and finally, to listen to what your immediate needs might be through an important survey that you will find the link to below. We have partnered with the Small Business Development Center of Marin to not only connect you, if you’re not already, to a great local resource, but to respond to issues we receive from the survey.

I thank you for taking a moment to look through the content below, which may not be new to some of you, and to complete the survey. As I’ve said many times, your success is our success. I look forward to creating a connection with all of you through this effort that will last long past the day we can open our doors once again and get back to some form of normalcy.

Sincerely,
 
David P. Donery Town Manager
Town of San Anselmo

Needs Assessment Survey

 
In an effort to determine the needs of our business owners during the current COVID-19 crisis, the Town of San Anselmo's Economic Development Committee is conducting a needs assessment survey. Information obtained from this survey will be immediately used to develop a plan on how best to help our businesses through this crisis, now and in the future.
 
When filling out the online survey, you have the option to remain anonymous, or provide us with your contact information for future outreach. Due to the urgent nature of this situation, we ask that you complete this survey by  April 17, 2020 @ 12:00 p.m. so we can quickly move this process forward.
