These numbers are very important in attracting retail clients. The numbers are astounding and will be used to provide the most current information available to prospective clients, developers, and other interested parties. Construction continues to progress on the 76th and 86th street projects, and is moving forward at a good pace. I have been working with a potential new industry for the city. The company is a plastics manufacturing firm that markets it's products to the food service industry. Owasso is on the "short list" of potential sites. The development of a marketing packet to market the City of Owasso to potential customers has been completed. I believe we have created an image of the city that will represent who we are and what we want to become. The "Locationxpert" software from MPSI has greatly increased our ability to provide the most up to date demographic information available. I shared information about the marketing package to members of the Chamber of Commerce board and had excellent response. The Economic Development page on the City of Owasso's web site has been updated and will be accessed not only by citizens of Owasso but also potential customers. The web page has a brand new look and all the data from the marketing tool is included. The web page had not been updated in a couple of years, and all the information was outdated and not relevant to anyone seeking information about the City of Owasso. The Community Development web page was recently redone and has had an increase in "hits" in the last few weeks. I believe the world wide web is a sea of opportunity for the economic development of the City of Owasso. The training I just completed indicated that web page development was one of the keys to marketing our assets in Owasso to the rest of the world. As always, if I can serve you in any way, please call.
