PALM BAY, FLORIDA – At the March 18th Regular Council Meeting, the United States Small Business Administration (SBA) Senior Area Manager Vince LoPresti joined City leaders for a ceremonial signing of a Strategic Alliance Memorandum to formalize a collaborative effort between the City of Palm Bay and the SBA to strengthen and expand small business development in Palm Bay.

This webinar will review the criteria and eligibility for businesses seeking to obtain HUBZone Certification and how the certification can help businesses gain preferential access to federal procurement opportunities.

Through this partnership, the City and SBA will work to provide helpful information, resources, training, and events designed to nurture and support small business development.

Suspension of Palm Bay School Zone Speed Camera Program

Mayor Rob Medina stated, “I support the concept of the school zone camera program and its goal of encouraging safer driving behaviors around our schools through a civil administrative process that doesn’t impact driver’s licenses with points. However, given the recent inconsistencies in the accuracy of information, I believe it’s appropriate to pause the program once again. Our children are our most precious resource, and we must ensure any initiative designed to protect them is implemented with the highest level of integrity and reliability.”
