Attention, business owners in unincorporated King County

The King County Local Services Business Survey is open for responses. We’ll use your responses to develop services and programs to support businesses in unincorporated King County. By taking this 10-minute survey, you’ll give us information that helps us help businesses in your community.

Please tell us about your business and how you have managed your operations the last couple of years. Did you seek and get business grants? Was technical assistance available to you? Did your business plan change? How would you rate your business response to the changing economy today?

We want to hear from all businesses in unincorporated King County—from a one-person sole proprietorship in Skyway to a 40-staff farming operation in Fall City or a 200-person medical equipment manufacturer on Vashon Island.

The survey deadline is 1:59 p.m. on Friday, November 18.
