A great place to live and work
A survey done recently found that a vast majority of respondents (98%) rated Oakdale as either a good or excellent place to live. They cited a community feel as being one of the most important qualities of life in the city.
Oakdale also strives to maintain a business-friendly environment. To that end, the city offers a Business Retention and Expansion program to create jobs that will help increase the tax base. The program uses assistance programs and personal visits to local companies to help support them. Low-interest financing is available for industrial and commercial properties making qualifying improvements in such areas as energy efficiency. The city also offers loans specifically for energy efficiency projects, in partnership with the Saint Paul Port Authority.
Companies that make improvements like these, particularly when they “go green,” might consider working with brochure printers to create a booklet describing these efforts. Such information can be very attractive to potential employees and partners alike.
When businesses are seeking to establish themselves, it's important they present themselves as competent and professional, and also as a single unit that can be identified by a brand name. Stationery printers can help in this effort, by working with the business to create a distinctive letterhead that will give the company a way to make that all-important great first impression.
Business card printing companies are also important in this effort. They create the cards that are an important tool for company employees to use in outreach efforts. In addition, by using the same design on the cards as on the letterhead, the printer helps to create the cohesive brand name.
Things to do
Oakdale offers a number of leisure activities for residents and visitors alike. Among them is a wide variety of parks that offer a number of different amenities. One of the most beautiful is the Oakdale Nature Preserve. This area comprises 220 acres surrounding the Discovery Center, featuring a lake covering 28 acres, plus mature trees and prairie land. Paved biking and hiking trails, a boardwalk, playground, tennis courts, forest garden, and picnic areas make the preserve a beautiful spot to spend a day.
Attractions like this are sometimes used for events like parties. On such days, event organizers can work with a banner printing company to create colorful Banners to decorate the venue.
For people who'd rather be indoors, the community offers events such as the Art Discovery Fair, where visitors can look at the work of local crafters and artists. The fair provides an opportunity for people to find unusual gifts, and enjoy the talent of members of the community.
Events like the fair can be made even more fun if organizers work with a flyer printing company to create a handout listing exhibitors and their works.
