PVA Business Survey Results
|
Playhouse Village Association (PVA) would like to thank you for taking time to respond to our PVA Business Survey. The business survey enabled us to have a more accurate picture about challenges Village businesses face and the areas of business assistance that are most important to them. Parking and Safety/Transient Issues were the biggest challenges to all sectors across all areas of Playhouse Village. Also of high importance was creating a new customer base and development of programs related to social media marketing. The complete results of the PVA Business Survey are available here. Your feedback is invaluable and will be used as the basis for ongoing program development to support business in our neighborhood.

Employee Parking Program Interest
|
As noted in the summary of the PVA Business Survey results, parking is an important issue for Playhouse Village business. Recently, the City of Pasadena worked with consultants to conduct a parking study to find ways to improve the downtown parking experience for both visitors and employees. One of the recommendations may be establishing an Employee Parking Program which would provide dedicated parking for employees and help keep employees from parking in spaces intended for visitors or from having to move their vehicle every few hours to avoid a parking citation. If you would be interested in participating in an Employee Parking Program like this, please let us know by sending us an email at info@playhousevillage.org and including how many employees you would have participate.
