[OMS_MANAGERS] City employee?

[Karla Antonini]

Hi Kelly,

In Hillsboro I worked with 9 Downtown property owners to create an Economic Improvement District to fund a Downtown organization and created the Hillsboro Downtown Partnership as a 501(C)3 and then we hired our first Executive Director in Sept. 2015. However the EID sunsetted March 2020 and we have not and likely will not look to reinstate the EID anytime soon. I work very closely with the current Ex Director EJ Payne on revitalization efforts and we are brainstorming funding ideas going forward. So in this case the city started the organization but now it is a stand-alone organization. Happy to jump on a call with you if you like.

Best,

Karla

Hi All,
I'd love to hear from those of you who work, in some capacity, for the City you're in.  Looking for models where a City Economic Development person or Tourism person is doing the Main Street Work.  Or maybe sharing City work/Main Street non profit work?

Thanks very much!
