Transformation Strategies

  

Newkirk Main Street utilizes the nationally successful Main Street Approach which is centered around Transformation Strategies. Newkirk Main Street's work on Transformation Strategies is organized around the Four Points: Economic Vitality, Design, Promotion, and Organization with special effort to not favor any one over the other. Frequently, it is found that a transformation strategy contains aspect of all four points. Each of these four points are represented by a working committee.

Economic Vitality

Economic Vitality Committee

Economic Vitality focuses on capital, incentives, and other economic and financial tools to assist new and existing businesses, catalyze property development, and create a supportive environment for entrepreneurs and innovators that drive local economies. Its goal is to strengthen existing assets within the Main Street district while diversifying its economic base by providing a balanced commercial mix and attracting new businesses that the market can support.

Economic Vitality is responsible for Market Research, Business Assistance, Financial Assistance, and Property Development.
