Main Street Guide for Economic Development

The Main Street Approach is a framework that is meant to empower a local community to take the reins, determine their own future, and build resiliency. Change will happen to your downtown district no matter what. Our hope is that your Main Street organization will be able to leverage baseline knowledge of economic development tools (that’s where this guide comes into play!) and strong community partnerships to plan for an economic future that builds community wealth and creates ample opportunities for all residents to thrive in the place they call home.
