Page 14 October 2012 DiCiccio Continued from page 12 told me he signed up for the program, it was easy, and he just got a $3,000 order. Another small business program is the Of fi ce of Customer Advocacy in the Phoenix Planning Department. It’s particularly helpful to small business start- ups. It’s almost impossible to know all the land mines that crop up just to open your doors to a new business. In addition to all the business stuff, you have to navigate the often-changing environment of government permitting. That’s where the Of fi ce of Customer Advocacy comes in. There, they will talk with entrepreneurs before they spend a lot of money and help them fi gure out if the business fi ts the zoning, if use permits are needed and if other issues are likely to create delays or more work (and expense). That way, a business start-up doesn’t get several months into the project and then is hung up on something that could have been handled or avoided by earlier knowledge. Nothing is more important now for Phoenix to be doing than making it easier for businesses to start up and survive, and thereby create jobs and work our way out of the recession. Phoenix City Councilman Sal DiCiccio represents District 6.
