The Detroit News. We want to improve the business climate in the city. There are some good things happening here.
Highland Park is a viable place to do business.
The association was officially formed in September and grew out of a series of meetings with business, civic and community leaders last winter and spring. We want to improve the business climate in the city, get businesses to work with one another and provide networking opportunities. They look to a business association as a comfort. With all of the new resurgence and new businesses coming in, we felt it was time to start bringing the business community together by entering into a partnership with government, business, nonprofit and citizens working together. The group meets monthly and has set up committees and plans to hold discussions on ways to beautify the city, improve public safety, prevent crime and offer business counseling.
