To the Citizens and Visitors of Hurst,

The Hurst City Council is proud to present the 2004 Retail, Restaurant, & Business Guide . This free informational guide is produced and distributed by the City of Hurst to help our citizens and visitors identify and patronize businesses within our City. Use this guide to find your favorite Hurst restaurant, retail, or business. Finding a place to shop, dine, or do business has never been easier.

This guide is also a means of supporting Hurst's local businesses. When you “Shop First in Hurst,” you help maintain our community's quality of life. Local merchants benefit from increased sales allowing them to keep their investment in our community. In addition, a small percentage of every sales tax dollar helps pave our streets, pay for crime-fighting programs to keep our city safe, and funds first-rate park and recreation programs right here in Hurst.

We also recognize that changes occur in our business community. Existing businesses expand and move to larger facilities, and new businesses relocate to Hurst to enjoy its business-friendly environment. That is why we are offering an on-line version of the Retail, Restaurant, & Business Guide at http://www.ci.hurst.tx.us . Use this web site to view the latest version of the guide. Enjoy convenient and immediate access to this directory by searching for a specific type of business, restaurant, or retail establishment, or simply print the guide to keep a copy of the latest version.

If you have any questions about this Guide, feel free to call our 24-hour Business Action Line at (817) 462-3477, or click on the “Corrections or Changes” link through the website to email us with your comments. And remember, “Shop First in Hurst” . . . it matters!
