Skokie Voice Economic Development Forum

Skokie Voice Residents' Association would like to invite all residents and business owners to join us for a Community Forum on Economic Development on Wed., Feb. 22 from 7-9 p.m. at Oakton Community Center where we will explore the prospects for economic development in Skokie. How will downtown Skokie be reinvented, and what impact will the new Skokie Swift station at Oakton Street have on that revitalization? How will new businesses on Dempster Street add to the mix? Who are the stakeholders guiding the process? Join us and add your voice to the dialogue!

There will be a panel discussion with representatives from the Village of Skokies' Economic Development and Marketing Departments, Skokie Chamber of Commerce, Independent Merchants of Downtown Skokie (IMODS), Dempster Street Merchants Association and Skokie Downtown Alliance.

Skokie Voice has posted an Economic Development Survey on our web site. We will use the responses to guide the panel discussion segment of the forum. The link to the survey is https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/BH93686  

An open-microphone Q&A session will follow the panel discussion. Panel topics will be based on responses to the Skokie Voice Economic Development Survey.
