Economic study gives local business a say By Marian Qraan Ot (h* EmarmkS The city of Eugene Is conducting yet another survey relating to economic development, but coordinators say this small business study is out of the ordin ary. The three-part study, supported main ly by the city’s Eugene Private Industry Council, is designed to determine econ omic development needs as perceived by Eugene's small businesses. The study includes an inventory of small business assistance associations, a random opinion survey of 1,000 of Eugene's approximately 3,400 small businesses, defined as those who em ploy 20 or fewer workers. “It s not just an ordinary study,” says Wally Cummins, a representative of Profiles Northwest, the company con ducting the research project. “It’s an action-directed project.” After taking inventory of the more than 200 assistance programs available to small businesses, the city will develop a catalog listing those agencies, says Cummins. He expects that catalog, which will be available at places such as the chamber of commerce, the city in formation desk, the University and Lane Community College, to come out in the middle of July. The random survey will give small businesses a chance to voice their ideas and concerns on business assistance and city government's role in economic development, Cummins says. In the two days since the survey was distributed May 24, about 100 small businesses have responded, and Cum mins says the comments are "sig nificant.” However, specifics will have to wait until results are released sometime in July, he says. EPIC coordinator Lee Beyer says the project will enable the city to get "com munity agreement” on what services are being used and what service gaps, if any, are going unfilled. The survey also should gauge the concerns of small businesses and their perceptions of what the city's role should be in economic development, he says. The survey also may change some businesses' perceptions of Eugene as “anti-businesss," although it’s not de signed specifically to accomplish that, Beyer says. "The city has taken some solid steps in changing that image, but it's going to take some time." He says the catalog of small business services will be unique. "That doesn’t exist anywhere," Beyer says. Beyer says the survey concentrates on small business because they are the*' "backbone" for the total economic development and diversification picture. "The bottomline is not everyone can know everything about running a small business," he says.
