Weigh In on Novato’s Economic Strategic Plan

More places to gather? New local businesses? More job opportunities close to home or places to live that are walkable to shops and restaurants? We're planning ahead and your input can help shape what comes next.

The City of Novato invites residents, business owners and community members to play an active role in shaping the City's future by contributing to Novato's first-ever Economic Strategic Plan.

This plan will guide how we support existing businesses, attract new ones, and create more opportunities to work, shop, and spend time locally. Your input will directly influence future priorities and investments so Novato grows in a way that reflects what matters most to you.

Take the Community Survey
Take a few minutes to share your big ideas, small suggestions and everything in between through our online survey: novato.gov/EconomicSurvey

Survey closes at 11:59pm on Sunday, May 11.

Attend the Community Workshop
Join us at an in-person workshop to talk about the plan, answer questions and provide your feedback. We're hosting it alongside the Downtown Novato Community Farmers' Market, so you can make an evening of it. Bring the kids, meet friends, grab dinner and/or fresh produce, and join the conversation.

Tuesday, May 5 at 5:30pm (presentation begins at 6pm)
Novato City Hall, 901 Sherman Avenue

The places you shop, the jobs available, and the way Novato feels day to day, don't happen by accident. Share your input now to help shape what comes next.
