Advocacy

Active & Engaged Advocates for Small Business in Port Moody

Shop Local Port Moody is committed to being an active, engaged advocate for Port Moody's small business community. Our advocacy had taken various forms throughout the years but has been rooted in the desire to ensure we are a united voice of businesses to city hall.

Our advocacy work includes:

• Inviting the Port Moody Economic Development Manager to be in regular attendance at our monthly board meeting
• Regular membership on the Economic Development Committee to ensure the voice of business is heard
• Appear as a delegation before city council regarding concerns of local businesses as well as requesting their assistance / support for SLPM community events
• Staying appraised of city council agendas to ensure membership is aware of any actions by council
