City Lights Oct. 2017.Pdf October, 2017 www.desototexas.gov DeSoto City Lights A Publication of the City of DeSoto Community Relations Department DeSoto Economic Development Corporation Partners with Options Real Estate to “Grow DeSoto” The City Council and Economic Development Corporaon recognize the need to grow DeSoto business opportunies for residents with unique retail ideas. When faced with the empty space le when the Westlake Ace Hardware closed, they envisioned creang a space that would assist small business owners with establishing viable businesses, while providing a unique retail environment for the community. They reached out to the property owner, Monte Anderson, and asked him to consider alternaves for the space. As owner of Opons Real Estate, Anderson thrives on shaking up the real estate market with new and innovave ideas. He accepted their challenge and proposed the Grow DeSoto business incubator project as a means to address the needs of new and developing businesses. The Grow DeSoto business incubator is a 26,000 square foot retail building located at 320 E. Belt Line Road that will contain a variety of restaurants, retail spaces and shared workspace. Food trailers will also be staoned in the parking lot of the shopping center for patrons to enjoy. “The project is intended to allow entry level entrepreneurs a place to start at a very low cost and with low risk,” said Anderson. “We are looking for authenc local entrepreneurs who have the dream and a desire to build local wealth. We want to give people an opportunity to build assets and value in order to someday own their own small buildings.” Many small businesses need a lower entry to market. They may not have the assets to get a business loan, the credit to secure a long‐term lease, or the operaonal background to run a successful business. The incubator is being completely renovated and will be divided into spaces ranging from 200 to 800 square feet, thereby allowing: Smaller businesses to acquire square footage that is right for them Flexible leases A high traffic area Access to business loans and Ongoing business training. The shared workspace concept included in the incubator serves to aract business professionals who want to rent desk space for a reasonable price instead of the more costly opon of leasing an enre office. These individuals typically work from home and desire the perks of an office space without the addional overhead that comes along with it. The Grow DeSoto business incubator is scheduled to open this fall and currently 50% of the space has been pre‐leased to a variety of small businesses ranging from restaurants to a full ‐service barber shop.

  • A Qualitative Study of the Process of Adoption, Implementation and Enforcement of Smoke-Free Policies in Privately-Owned Affordable Housing Michelle C
    Kegler et al. BMC Public Health (2019) 19:1071 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-019-7404-y RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access A qualitative study of the process of adoption, implementation and enforcement of smoke-free policies in privately-owned affordable housing Michelle C. Kegler1* , Erin Lebow-Skelley1, Jaimie Lea2, Regine Haardörfer1, Adrienne Lefevre1, Pam Diggs3 and Sally Herndon4 Abstract Background: Household smoke-free home rules cannot fully protect nonsmokers from secondhand smoke (SHS) if they live in multi-unit housing (MUH). Instead, property-level smoke-free policies are needed to prevent SHS incursion into apartment units and to keep common areas smoke-free. Smoke-free policies are usually at the discretion of property management companies and owners within the context of market-rate and privately-owned affordable housing in the U.S. Methods: Semi-structured interviews on the policy development, implementation and enforcement experiences of 21 different privately-owned affordable housing management companies were conducted with representatives from properties in North Carolina and Georgia who had established smoke-free policies before 2016. Results: The decision to adopt was typically made by corporate leadership, board members, owners or property managers, with relatively little resident input. Policy details were influenced by property layout, perceptions of how best to facilitate compliance and enforcement, and cost of creating a designated smoking area. Policies were implemented through inclusion in leases, lease addenda or house rules with 6 months’ notice most common. Participants thought having a written policy, the norms and culture of the housing community, public norms for smoke-free environments, and resident awareness of the rules and their consequences, aided with compliance.

  • Loyola University New Orleans PRSSA Bateman Team
    2015 PRSSA Bateman Case Study Competition Loyola University New Orleans PRSSA Bateman Team Created by: Faculty Advisor: Katherine Collier Cathy Rogers, Ph.D. Chelsea Cunningham Kenneth Motley Professional Advisor: Martin Quintero Jeffrey Ory, APR, ABC NiRey Reynolds TABLE OF CONTENTS Executive Summary 1 Research 1 Target Audiences 3 Key Messages 4 Challenges and Opportunities 4 Objectives 4 Strategies, Rationales & Tactics 5 Evaluation 8 Conclusion 10 Appendix 12 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Home is where it all starts. It’s barbecues in the backyard and inviting neighbors over for a good time. It’s second-lining down the street and a hot bowl of gumbo. Home is where we lay our heads at night. It’s tucking the little ones in at night and checking for monsters under the bed. It should be safe, comfortable and stable. Too often, however, people don’t have access to nutritious meals, spots in the best schools or protected environments free from harm. In support of the national Home Matters movement, the 2015 Loyola Univer- sity New Orleans PRSSA Bateman campaign Geaux Home: Home is the bedrock of success, partnered with two local Home Matters supporters to show New Orleanians how home contributes to success and impacts education, health, public safety and economic development. Geaux Home established the link between home and these core social issues and emphasized the need to redefine the American Dream. Geaux Home accelerated action and conversation about housing in New Orleans through community outreach and instigation of policy change. We raised awareness of Home Matters through our 18 presentations, partnerships with Providence Community Housing and Make It Right Foundation and our Geaux to Jazzfest social media contest.

  • Sixteen-Week Academic Calender Looms in the Distance for Students
    CERRITOS COLLEGE WWW.TALONMARKS.COM WEDNESDAY, MARCH 29, 2017 VOLUME 61, NO. 17 FIRST ISSUE FREE, ADDITIONAL COPIES $1 Disadvantages: 1. The greatest disadvantage of adopting a compressed calendar is cost. 2. Another concern is that those students who benefit from a longer semester will have poorer success and retention. This report’s analysis of success and reten- tion, however, provides evidence that, as a whole, stu- dent success and retention is not harmed by course compression. 3. Some programs will need to alter how lectures, labo- ratories, and practicums are scheduled. Nursing and Cosmetology are examples of programs that will be affected in this way. However, every college in our region has been able to adapt successfully. Cerritos College should be able to, as well. Advantages: 1. The major on-going expense of the compressed cal- endar arises from the need to reinstitute the Weekend College, something the 2009 Report did not need to consider. However, the Weekend College would serve Perla Lara/TM Photo illustration of a possible 16 week acaemic calendar and greatly benefit a significant, non-traditional stu- dent population. 2.
