2. 61. Resolution 2026-R-61 Small Business Development

City Commission Meeting · 2026-04-23 · agenda_item

The City of Palatka is planning to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding with the University of North Florida Board of Trustees, for the Florida Small Business Development Center (FSBDC). This agreement aims to support small business development, economic growth, and entrepreneurial activity within the City of Palatka. The agreement is planned to run from October 1, 2025, to September 30, 2026, with potential for renewal. This initiative is currently under review by the City Commission. While no construction is directly involved, the project will set in motion services and support for local businesses. This could lead to future opportunities for contractors, suppliers, and service providers as new businesses emerge or existing ones expand. Reaching out to the FSBDC and the City early could provide insight into emerging business needs and potential future projects.
