The City of Burien economic development team conducted 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 was mailed to each business in Burien, and a postcard was mailed to each business with a link to an online survey including additional language access options.
Business owner roundtables were held to delve deeper into common themes from the survey and areas of interest where additional exploration was necessary.
Results of the survey and business roundtables were communicated to the Burien City Council during the first quarter of 2023 and helped guide the development of the Economic Development Action Plan.
