Number of participants: 2 - At the local level, I do not feel those working in the government/municipalities consider those running and owning business - The Hannah Grimes Center is an amazing resource for entrepreneurs and initiatives like Monadnock Buy Local help to raise awareness of the important place local businesses have in our economy and in our lives. |

Number of participants: 5 - Low speed internet is a big challenge. Bad roads are a challenge - There is a lack of funds for municipal repair and maintenance - Not a serious challenge. Comcast is available in downtown, office space is affordable enough. - Roads are not always in the greatest shape....... - not a serious challenge |

Number of participants: 5 - No, not a serious challenge - NO - Little bit of a challenge. Local regulations surrounding signage appearance of buildings are discouraging for commerce. - The byzantine regulatory system for hospitality -related businesses is daunting in "Live Free or Die" New Hampshire. Absolutely archaic. - not a serious challenge - local town works with us |

Number of participants: 1 - Hard to find opportunity to expand business within the area. Only opportunity to make money comes from out of state and manufacture product in P'boro. |

|
||||||
Number of participants: 4 - Better internet - High speed internet - Very difficult to find help. High rents and cost of living make it hard for new workers to come to the area. The area needs more affordable housing and local government needs to recognize this challenge. - In outlying towns like mine, the availability of reliable internet service is severely lacking and a huge detriment to folks looking to do business of any kind. Also, the drug crisis in our area makes it virtually impossible to keep employees, especially in the hospitality industry. |
