Recruit business with tax incentives

I agree with you! the coffee shop was just a small idea. Along those lines I think that a local bakery would be great and maybe even a local market space. Maybe adding some infrastructure to give our farmers market more space/shade/booths? I like the idea of having many small businesses that will service our growing population.

Sorry, that posted before I was ready. I went to a cyber Cafe one time to work on my laptop, It was nice. They had a batista and a service your self area, charging stations and electric outlet at all tables but what was cool was the vending machine for office supplies and electronics. They had paper tablets, pens, pencils, ear buds, cords, multi ports. The best part, interior sound proofing on ceiling and walls. There's my 2 cents.

I agree with you Alex but I think you would need more than coffee. I think coffee drinkers often times want to get a cup on the go. However if there were tables and free secure internet

I think Noble is big enough to support a formal coffee shop where people may be able to go , sit down, meet friends, work, etc. A locally owned pizza joint could probably do well in our town as well! These would be great to have near our parks or even near our library where people already tend to hang out!

Well Sir, I have no expertise in that area but I bet the City can find someone that has the experience and knowledge to go out and find businesses that need a home, a work force and a friendly City government. Id think that person would research companies that are growing and or just starting, and that need a home. For new businesses id go find schools like Francis Tuttle, and Moore Norman Tech. that have incubators where startups go to develope their product, and form their company. They are the dreamers and what Noble has to offer may just enable their dream to come true. Hell, get the City to invest in a new startup. We shouldn't just rely of traffic tickets and sales tax. Let's make some money by helping a new company succeed.
