Wyoming Main Street is accepting applications from communities interested in participating in its program which uses historic preservation to help revitalize local downtowns.
The Wyoming Main Street program helps communities capitalize on their unique downtown areas by using historic preservation to generate economic and entrepreneurial growth. The program comprises a two track system designed to meet the varying needs of communities across the state and minimize local costs. Communities may participate at a Wyoming Main Street Certified or Affiliate level depending on specified criteria for each track.
The Wyoming Main Street Advisory Board will meet in December to review applications for Main Street designations. Applications are due to the Wyoming Main Street office no later than Dec. 1. Interested communities should submit a letter of intent to apply to the Wyoming Main Street office by Sept. 16. The letter helps the Main Street office keep track of interested communities so as to help them through the application process.
Communities are chosen using criteria that evaluates a program’s organizational capacity, historic preservation ethic, and support from the community, among other criteria. Once an application is accepted, the state coordinating program acts as a partner providing training, information, research, referral services, and technical assistance.
Communities interested in participating in the program should contact Scott Wisniewski at 307.777.2934 orscott.w@wyo.gov. The application as well as information regarding the track system may be downloaded from the Wyoming Main Street website, www.wyomingmainstreet.org.
