[TRU Research] Scheduling poll for next meeting

[Katie Wilson]

That’s a lot of businesses! Here’s one idea. If we had industry classification as well as business name, and if we could do different color pins for different industries, it could be interesting to see a few key industries mapped— that could help inform our worker outreach strategies. I’m hoping that my public records request will give us that, but if it doesn’t, could we scrape the data from the SOS website <https://ccfs.sos.wa.gov/#/>? If you input business name you do get “nature of business” among other things.
