January Business Roundtable

Roundtable Introduces New Director of Lab’s Community Programs Office The introduction of the Laboratory’s new director for its Small Business Office was the impetus for a Business Roundtable held on January 31. Nearly 50 businesspeople attended, with broad representation from all the segments of Chamber membership: nonprofits, Lab contractors, professional services, consumer goods and services, and health care providers were all represented. Attendees felt that a productive dialog had begun, and hoped that the dialog would be continued.

Chris Fresquez, the new director, was introduced by Johnnie Martinez of the Lab’s Community Programs Office 2

(CPO). He was very open and willing to meet with business people, and invited all to call his office with any questions or issues they might have.

Scott Gustafson, Merrick, said that he would like to see the lab reward services done locally, thus demonstrating a commitment to the community.

April Wade of Little Forest Playschool, said that the impacts of layoffs at the Lab and with contractors was magnified for the business community.

Krista Martinez, Junior Achievement, voiced her desire to work with the labratory to develop young people’s business acumen.

Kevin Holsapple of LACDC, asked if Johnnie Martinez could describe the Community Commitment program as developed by the Community Programs Office.

James Chrobocinsky of Zia Realty, said that the Lab needs local businesses be-

yond just the technical support, to provide quality of life that will help with recruiting.

Johnnie Martinez, CPO, called out several items: regional approach, community giving, investment of $3 million per year. He also reminded the audience that there are already set-asides, preference programs, and that the lab falls under federal acquisition requirements Chris Fresquez added “We hope to meet with those people [purchasers of goods and services within the Lab] ahead of time to identify what they need [so that those purchasers might be steered to finding local sources]”.

If you missed the January Roundtable, stay tuned for notices about future roundtable discussions. We’re working with the Lab’s Community Programs office to make sure the dialog continues, and hoping to hold future roundtable discussions three or four times each year.

LACDC News Shopping Survey Testing is underway of a community shopping survey intended to provide useful information to merchants and other consumer focused businesses.

Los Alamos Chamber and Los Alamos MainStreet are collaborating on the survey that will collect information about shopper perceptions and preferences. The idea to develop a survey at this time came from a request by Dave Fox of CB FOX to get a better sense of his customers preferences and needs.

The survey asks about 28 retail categories to gather info about purchasing behaviors (i.e. local vs. non-local vs. internet) and preferences (products and brands). To construct the survey, we gathered a variety of proven surveys from other Chambers and Mainstreet organizations from around the Country as source material. We anticipate conducting the survey beginning in March and will invite the

merchant community to share in the results once responses are analyzed.

We’ll keep you informed as the project progresses.If you are interested in this project, please contact Katie Stavert at 661-4805, katie@losalamos.org.

Annual Review Published Online The Los Alamos Commerce and Development Corporation’s 2012 Annual Review is now available for online reading.

Make Use of Curb Appeal Grant It is the time of year to get ready for spring and start planning for the summer season. Did you know that the YMCA has taken advantage of the Los Alamos MainStreet curb appeal grant two years in a row? The grant has helped the YMCA improve their landscaping around the building. Did you notice the new patios with seating, the removal of dead bushes, and new landscaping rocks? The grant helped the YMCA match their funding up to $500 per year to make it more pleasant for people to spend time outside. Diana Martinez, Senior Program Director stated in a letter “We are so thankful for the assistance you’ve given us to spruce up our front area and make it friendly and eye appealing. We are so grateful.”

If you are considering improving the outside of your business, let the curb appeal grant give you a hand. More at www.lamainstreet.com/grants.

Services for Commercial Property Businesses Los Alamos Business Assistance Services team has been working to upgrade our commercial property database to improve our ability to refer people to the representatives of vacant commercial property.

The current system in place relies on landlords providing us with information about vacancies. The new process will allow for property representatives to log in online to update information about their various properties.

about potential retail tenants. With this resource, Los Alamos Business Assistance Services can do research on potential tenants by identifying those who are expanding and would consider locating in our market.

An up-to-date database enables us to be able to more easily maintain aggregate information about commercial property market status. Los Alamos Commerce and Development Corporation and its programs makes dozens of referrals to commercial property representatives each year to connect people looking for business spaces with potential landlords.

The information posted by landlords will appear on a web listing of available properties. The underlying property inventory will also allow for analysis of market conditions such as marketwide vacancy rates.

Los Alamos Business Assistance Services will be able to help with contacts and background information that could be useful to approaching a prospective tenant.

March & April 2013

A second new capability recently added as a resource to landlords is a subscription to Retail Lease Track, a national resource providing information

FAN44: Taking the Next Step

By Katy Korkos Have you been to a FAN 44 (Food And Networking for Four) luncheon? If you have, you know that these luncheons are a great opportunity to truly network with fellow Chamber members. At the ones I’ve attended, I’ve learned more about contracting with LANL, alternative health care practitioners, Rotary, United Way and the Los Alamos Concert Association; I’ve met the County’s Administrator, public works director and building inspector; I’ve enjoyed lunch in several restaurants, from the Bandelier Grill to Bob’s Bodacious Barbecue- I’ve even recruited event volunteers.

We’ve had nearly 70 people sign up to attend, and we have 15 participating restaurants. We’ve learned that on any given week, about half of the people opt out- which leaves us with only enough people to set up seven groups- which means that some of the people we meet with are “repeats”, and we’re unable to fill the tables reserved at the restaurants.

We’re looking at a couple of things to make the program work better.

1. More people to sign up 2. We’re looking at instituting a monthly fee to administer the program- probably $10 per month.

I’m thinking that if people pay a fee, they will feel committed to the program and prioritize it over other things that might come up I’d really like some feedback on this- give me a call at 6614816, or e-mail at katyk@losalamos.org You can sign up by going to losalamoschamber.com, pulling down the Member Benefits menu, clicking on Networking Opportunities and filling out the form at the bottom of the page.

Commercial Recycling Prices Cut Attention all Los Alamos County businesses! The County has slashed prices for recycling services. Now is the time to start or expand your commercial recycling program. Sign up for a new cardboard or mixed recycling dumpster for the low cost of $19.05 per month, a savings of $70 per month compared to the old rates. Or, if you are a smaller business sign up for a mixed recycling roll cart for $5 per month, a $20 monthly savings compared to the old rates. Call 662-8383 to start recycling today, County staff is available to assist in implementation and answer all your recycling questions.

As part of the County’s efforts to create a more sustainable community it has adopted a goal to reach a 40% recycling rate by 2020. The current recycling rate is around 24%, leaving a lot of work to be done in the next few years. The commercial sector presents a great opportunity to increase 6

the amount of materials recycled. Currently commercial recycling is estimated to be at 12%, and through targeted audits the County has identified that a large percentage of materials currently being disposed of as waste by commercial customers is in fact recyclable. In response to this information the County Council supported the before mentioned reductions in commercial recycling rates in August.

The Environmental Services Division and Los Alamos County Environmental Sustainability Board are on a mission to increase commercial recycling in Los Alamos County. Environmental Services Specialist Tom Nagawiecki can be contacted at 505-662-8383 or tom.nagawiecki@lacnm.us to answer all your questions and assist in getting your recycling program started.

Los Alamos MainStreet and New Mexico Main Street (NMMS) are accredited affiliates of the National Historic Preservation Trust’s MainStreet program. The focus of Main Street is commercial district vitality through a fourpoint program of: • • • •

Organization Economic positioning Design Promotion

located between 4th Street and Oppenheimer from Central to Trinity Drive.

Los Alamos MainStreet participates as a “partner” community. As a partner community, we are required to have a work plan, address the 4 points through a committee structure, pursue at least one project in each of the four areas during the year, have at least a part-time staff, receive financial support from the local government, make prescribed semiannual reports to NM MainStreet, and attend various events and training held by NMMS throughout the year. In return, NMMS is to provide services and support to us and we are eligible to apply for Main Street capital outlay if any is made available in a given year.

Capital outlay in recent years include:

New Mexico MainStreet is a department within the New Mexico Economic Development Department. Los Alamos MainStreet, a program of LACDC, is part of the New Mexico MainStreet network. The terms of this affiliation are governed by a memorandum of understanding between LACDC and NM MainStreet. The Los Alamos MainStreet district is 8

I-25 Signage Aims to Draw Travelers to Los Alamos Bandelier National Monument could be getting closer to having a series of signs installed beginning at I-25 Santa Fe exits and leading to Los Alamos County and Bandelier. The Los Alamos County transportation department has reached a tentative agreement to allow for brown highway signs to be installed to help travelers find their way to Bandelier.

Funding to implement the signage is anticipated from the Los Alamos County economic development budget. The MainStreet Futures (MSF) committee of LACDC has recommended this type of signage for the past several years. In addition, MSF has made a variety of other signage recom10

mendations, some of which were already implemented and others of which are still pending consideration.

Although the recommendation had been to include a Los Alamos townsite attraction in addition to Bandelier, County officials recommended starting with the Bandelier only sign to get a foot in the door with NM Department of Transportation, then trying for enhancements later. The hope is that the signage will raise awareness of Los Alamos area attractions and how close they are to the I-25 interchanges most likely to be used by travelers who might visit here.

Los Alamos Commerce & Development Corporation

Meeting & Visitor Bureau News 6 Events Chosen by LTAB The Lodgers Tax Advisory board has come out with the list of six events for the Meeting and Visitor Bureau and Chamber to focus special attention on in the coming months: 1. The Atomic Man Duathlon 2. Earth Day and National Lands week 3. The Jemez Mountain Trail Runs 4. Run the Caldera 5. The Nick Nogar Swim Meet 6. The Pajarito Punishment That special focus means that we will be facilitating a meeting on March 5, 11:30 to 1 p.m. in the Chamber conference room, of all of the people who put on those events.

We hope to find out what kind of support they need from the Chamber and how we can help them give their participants the best possible visitor experience. We’ll be inviting representatives from those events, but the meeting will be open to other organizations that put on events. If you help with other events that get a lot of visitors, you are welcome to attend and find out more about our visitor services.

March & April 2013

Volunteer Spotlight: Jung Pyo Hong Jung Pyo Hong came to Los Alamos from California in 1976. Jung came to work at the Los Alamos National Laboratory as an electrical engineer. He worked at LANL from 1976 to 1988. Jung says that he bought into the American myth that you worked until you were 65 years old and then you retired and so that’s exactly what he did.

It took a little time for Jung to get into his stride with retirement, but lucky for us he is now volunteering at the White Rock Visitor Center.

We thought it was a great idea when Jung came in to the Los Alamos Visitor Center and offered to volunteer at the White Rock Visitor Center from 8 am to 10 am weekdays.

Jung enjoys opening the visitor center early and talking to people from all over the world.

Los Alamos Meeting & Visitor Center is proud of all the volunteers who do their best to serve as a welcoming face to Los Alamos and it’s array of tourist attractions.
