Understanding the Economic Disruption to City of Benicia as a result of COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic has created new obstacles for business, employees, elected officials, job seekers, and everyone in our community.

In this 30-minute webinar Dr. Eyler will provide clarity and trusted information about the economic complexities, social, fiscal and monetary policies, projections of possibly what could be happening as we come out of the crisis and what that means to the City.
