By Megan Stretavski, Workforce Initiatives Manager Why take a chance on hiring a returning citizen? If lower turnover rates, lower absenteeism, higher retention rates and being more loyal than the general workforce don’t have you convinced, there are several programs in the Toledo area that “coach up” this population. On April 30, 2021, during the Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce’s Re-Entry Development Initiative (REDI) Lunch and Learn, we discussed the ways in which attendees could get their organization started on their own second chance hiring journey.
Happy May, Toledo! As the weather continues to warm up and we look forward to our fabulous upcoming events and programming here at the Toledo Chamber, let's take the opportunity to look back on all of the members who joined our fantastic membership of over 2,000 businesses in the Toledo Region. As always, we continue to advocate for a thriving business environment, lead the charge to attract and retain new talent in the region, and connect businesses with resources and opportunities for growth. Congratulations and welcome to our newest members!

By Tim Schneider, Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce At its regular meeting at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday, April 27, Toledo City Council is expected to refer Ordinance 234-21 to its Committee of the Whole for further review. The ordinance would establish new regulations for small box discount stores, also known as dollar stores, by requiring them to obtain special use permits and be subject to annual reviews, and new locations to be at least one mile away from existing stores. The proposal was forwarded to the full City Council without recommendation after being previously reviewed by Council’s Zoning & Planning Committee. The Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce opposes the measure as it would add unnecessary layers of regulation and potentially discourage business development in the city.
