CINCINNATI, Jan. 18, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Cincinnati area business owners and leaders are invited to participate in one of two virtual public hearings to provide feedback on their experiences in contracting, or attempting to contract, with the City of Cincinnati. The hearings will be held on Wednesday, January 26, Noon-1:30 p.m., and Thursday, January 27, 5-6:30 p.m. via Zoom. Advanced registration is recommended by not required.

The City of Cincinnati has partnered with Gri?n and Strong, P. C. (GSPC) to complete a Disparity Study. The Study will evaluate and make improvement recommendations for contracting and procurement policies and practices with regard to minority- and women-owned businesses.

All feedback will provide valuable information for the City and help to update policies, practices, and procedures addressing the needs of our business community. All comments will be part of the public record, recorded, and potentially used for the 2022 Disparity Study.
