innovative economic development initiative. The NBC program links up with
neighborhood business associations in the city to promote the health and
vitality of Spokane’s small business districts. Lively and inviting
neighborhood business areas are part of the fabric of strong neighborhoods
and a strong city. On Tuesday, November 22, 6:30 p.m. meet the NBC Team
and hear about the interesting projects this program has tackled. Then
meet the neighborhood partners in the upcoming holiday shopping event on
December 3, 2005 called “Girls Day Out!” This discussion is part of the

developed by the Planning Services Department.

* What is the Neighborhood Business
Centers Program?
