The hearing will bring together grocery store owners and community members to discuss food access in Jackson and explore ways the City can support existing stores, prevent closures, and attract new grocery options.We encourage anyone interested in participating in this hearing—particularly owners of current grocery stores, former store owners, those considering opening a store, and residents—to sign up at bit.ly/jacksongrocery.All seven members of Jackson’s City Council stand firm in our commitment to ensure our local grocery store businesses can thrive, and in our commitment to ensure all residents can enjoy high-quality grocery shopping.
Good luck.

Grocery stores would come in droves if they didn’t think they would be robbed blind. National chains don’t hate Jackson citizens, they hate being stolen from.
Shoplifting and crime drive out businesses. It’s as simple as that.
Thanks for giving the populous of The Capitol City over a month to prepare for this momentous occasion.
Why not activate the national Guarge and the Army Reserve to police the shopping lots, and overlook the in store theft.
Oh boy, here we go.
We have a pack of dumba****s leading the City of Jackson if they don't know why…
You mean that includes Stokes.
Oh boy. I bet this was a Parkison idea. Let’s “discuss” or have a “study”. How about stop crime and boom plenty of grocery stores!
What a giant waste of everyone's time.
Stop all the shoplifting and they would had never left.
food deserts due to high theft..?????
Ok I'll bite, it's the natives. There, I just saved them the time of having to have a stupid meeting or town hall
