Event Overview
The Carmel Small Business Network (CSBN) was created to give small business owners in the City a direct communication link to the Mayor and other City employees with whom these businesses have correspondence. These meetings allow small business owners the opportunity to get information directly from the Mayor regarding issues directly affecting their businesses, such as construction and other improvements, economic development projects, Carmel Redevelopment Commission plans, and other future direction for specific areas of the City.
