Why this exists
Local merchants asked for more people downtown.
The City of Millbrae’s downtown business survey reported that merchants wanted coordinated events and more people brought into downtown. Millbrae Local is an independent, lightweight answer: useful discovery pages that can connect intent directly to local businesses.
The free directory launches before any paid offer. Directory activity will determine which category, placement, and price deserve a self-service paid test.
