DIXON, CA —Dixon launched a campaign to boost local spending, support businesses and highlight their contributions to jobs and city services.
The Shop Local Dixon campaign will spotlight restaurants, retailers and service providers to encourage residents to support neighborhood businesses, according to a city news release on Thursday.
City officials said local spending generates sales tax revenue that helps fund public safety, roads, parks and other services.
"We are incredibly proud of the vibrant business community we have here in Dixon," Mayor Steve Bird said in the release. "Our local businesses create jobs, bring people together and help make Dixon the special community it is."
The campaign also aims to strengthen connections between merchants and residents while raising awareness of shopping, dining and services available locally.
Residents can follow Dixon's official social media accounts for business features and share their experiences using the hashtag #ShopLocalDixon.
