Completed - Burien Community Hub

The City of Burien economic development team will be conducting a citywide business survey in November 2022 with all brick-and-mortar and home occupation businesses with a City of Burien business license.

A paper questionnaire in English and Spanish will be mailed to each business in Burien, and a postcard mailed to each business with a link to an online survey including additional language access options.

Once responses are received, business owner roundtables will be held to delve deeper into common themes from the survey or areas of interest where additional exploration may be necessary.

Results of the survey and business roundtables will be communicated to the Burien City Council during the first quarter of 2023.

The Burien City Council adopted new tree regulations to protect trees on private property in Burien during their October 3, 2022 meeting.

The protection of trees on private properties in Burien is important for many reasons. Studies show that trees help clean air, reduce the effects of global climate change, reduce stress, increase economic activity, increase property values, and make our community more attractive.
