Hi there,
We want to THANK YOU for your support. Just a quick update to let you know where we are at: the number of businesses who support opening Main Street has grown, we are now at 83! Despite what the opposition may say, they are all legitimate numbers AND legitimate businesses. We have been hit with extreme antagonism, including personal attacks on our businesses (via Google reviews, Nextdoor app, and throughout social media). It’s very disappointing, but we refuse to give into their outrageous tactics and keep our focus on saving our businesses. We have met with the mayor and city council members and discussed our concerns and asked, “what would it take to get you to vote to put opening Main on the agenda?”. Unfortunately, they still have no interest in helping downtown survive.
How you can help:
- Take a look at openmainst.com for all the information you will need. And for contact info if you have additional questions.
- Email city council with your concerns and feelings.
- Email our petition to friends and family that would like Main Street open.
- DO NOT donate to any fund that claims to be raising money for beatification of downtown. The city is already using your tax dollars.
Thank you again! Your local downtown Main Street business owners are grateful for your help.
