OREGON HERITAGE EXCHANGE FEATURES UPPER FLOOR HOUSING PROJECT IN DOWNTOWN
REEDSPORT

Last year was the first year of awarding for the Oregon Main Street
Revitalization Grant program. Reedsport Main Street was awarded a grant to
rehabilitate five upstairs apartments in the Burdick building downtown.
Bringing apartments into Downtown will increase the number of people who
shop in local stores and eat and drink at local restaurants. Read more about
the project and the impact it has had on Reedsport's Downtown by visiting
here

EXCELLENCE IN DOWNTOWN REVITALIZATION AWARDS - DEADLINE EXTENDED TO SUNDAY,
JULY 29. 

We will give you a few extra days to submit the Excellence in Downtown
Revitalization Award nominations. They are now due on Sunday, July 29, at
midnight (since I will be working out of the office and won't be here to
process the nominations, I thought it might help to give you the extra time
:)). Please submit the nomination form (see attached) and 3 images in jpeg
format via email to me, sheri.stuart at oregon.gov
<mailto:sheri.stuart at oregon.gov> .
