Small Business Roundtable Meetings

The Mayor’s Small Business Roundtable meetings were established in 2022.   There are four small business roundtable sectors: Restaurant and Bar Owners; Manufacturing and Construction Industry; Retail and Service Industry; and Home, Remote, and  E-commerce.  The Mayor’s Small Business Roundtable meetings are scheduled quarterly for each sector. The meetings are open to the public and serve businesses operating within the City of Lima.

The quarterly meetings provide an opportunity for the City to update business owners on initiatives, programs, and services offered by the City, as well as, provide time for the City to hear the needs of business owners. All meetings are held in Council Chambers, 50 Town Square, Lima, OH 45801.
