The Saint Paul City Council is seeking nominations for its 4th annual Business Awards. These awards are the next step in City Council’s Open for Business initiative that started in 2015 to make Saint Paul an even better place to do business.
Community members, residents, employees and business-owners are encouraged to nominate and/or apply at www.stpaul.gov/2020BusinessAwards. Also, read about the 2019 award winners, how the award recognition was formed and learn more about the categories at www.stpaul.gov/bizawards.
The deadline for nominations is 4:30 PM on February 28, 2020. The winners of the business awards will be recognized at a Saint Paul City Council meeting in April 2020. Winners will be selected by a committee made up of past business award winners and/or members of the community.
Award Categories:
· Traditions Award – Honoring a business that has been active in Saint Paul for more than 5 years.
· New Kid on the Block Award – Honoring a business that has opened in Saint Paul within the last five years.
· Good Neighbor Business – Honoring a business that shows a dedication to improving the community. There are many ways a business can be a “good neighbor” – providing jobs and services to the hard-to-employ, building solid relationships with the neighborhood, partnering with local nonprofits – anything that helps Saint Paul build vibrant, economically sustainable neighborhoods.
