Greg Last Businesses Quotations

We spend a lot of time explaining the permit process to business owners and potential business owners. And while we are busy trying to attract new businesses to Southlake, we try to be aware of the needs of our existing businesses. Sometimes it is a real juggling act.

We spend a fair amount of time maintaining this database. We are continually updating the information on the businesses so we will always have the correct information. It is important to make changes when owners change or other pertinent information changes.

Our goal, as reflected in our mission statement, is to help create a diversified, vibrant and sustainable economy through attraction and support of businesses meeting the vision and standards desired by city leaders. There is a whole lot to our department; we handle new business requests for information, answer questions about existing businesses and try to head people in the right direction to obtain the information they are looking for.

One of the most important services provided by our website is to find a business feature. From this site you can just type in a one word description, such as restaurant or clothing, and you will be given a list of every business in Southlake that fits that criteria. It's a great tool for newcomers and current residents because new businesses open everyday and it is hard to keep up with them unless you have a database like this to search.
