Goals
The goal of the Hanover Park Business CONECT (Committee on
Networking, Education, and Community Teamwork) is to strengthen the
Village's business community by encouraging retention
and expansion of existing businesses in the community.
Where possible, the committee also encourages efforts to attract
new businesses to the Village. These efforts strengthen the
Village's economic base while facilitating
networking opportunities for the business community.
Description of Functions
The Hanover Park Business CONECT responsibilities include promoting
the Village's business opportunities through promotional events and
activities. They also develop and update materials, such as the
Village's annual business directory, that advertise businesses in the
Village. CONECT also facilitates formal and informal networking
opportunities at various Village functions and meetings with the
representatives of the business community. Specifically, they coordinate
the following programs and activities on an ongoing basis:
Coordination and hosting annual activities promoting Hanover Park and
encouraging networking among local businesses, including Mayor's Choice
Business Award Program, and activities such as business or developer
breakfast programs.
Preparation and distribution of the annual Business Directory
promoting and
advertising local businesses. The Directory for the current fiscal year
was updated and mailed.
Continuing outreach and public relations with the residential and
commercial real estate community by hosting the annual Real Estate
luncheon and seminar to continue enhancement of the Village's image.
This has proven successful with a continued rise in residential sales
prices in the Village.
Providing recommendations and guidance regarding business retention
and attraction activities. Staff continues to work with the
Hanover Park Business CONECT regarding development updates and potential
business retention, expansion and attraction proposals.
