# Business Development Commission 11/05/2026

The City of Webster Groves Business Development Commission met on November 5, 2026. Members discussed business outreach and event planning, including retaining the existing coffee format while improving promotion and agendas, and scheduling a February 17 business roundtable and other events. The commission also approved a proposal to begin discussions with City Council about a business-development/marketing liaison role. The discussion described a rough compensation estimate of $25–$30 per hour plus benefits and a placeholder figure of $100,000, but no position, budget allocation, or contract was approved; the proposal is to be submitted for further dialogue. Members also discussed a possible Earth Month collaboration with the Sustainability Commission, which received a motion and unanimous approval to proceed with planning.
