Businesses in Cedar Rapids want to see more development downtown and they view flood control as the city’s most pressing need, a new survey shows. City staff released the 2017 Cedar Rapids Business Survey Tuesday. The report asked companies around the city about the state of their business, the challenges they face and their thoughts on Cedar Rapids. Cedar Rapids uses the survey to figure out how it can better retain and attract companies to the area, city Economic Development Specialist David Connolly said at a City Council meeting.
