“A lot of hard work goes into achieving this recognition. Main Street communities exemplify the Texas mystique and this recognition honors the many people, including Main Street managers and volunteers, who put in countless hours to make their Main Street programs work. The result is an active and successful downtown revitalization effort that benefits not only the Main Street district, but also the entire community,” said Debra Farst, state coordinator of the Texas Main Street Program.

A lot of hard work!
Wow!
I would say a lot of tax payers money spent in salaries and “over time” hours paid (approximately $250,000.00 if not more), when the same results could have been accomplish by the inefficient planning and zoning department without having to hire all the new people just to enforce regulations.
Oh!
I forgot, lets spend more money, give jobs to our buddies and raise taxes (forget the fact that all the taxpayers and businesses are down 30% or more in revenues). Everybody is downsizing except our “wonderful city officials”.
We are proud of our downtown revitalization efforts…
