The Main Street program is designed to
improve all aspects of the downtown or central business district,
producing both tangible and intangible benefits. Improving economic
management, strengthening public participation, and making downtown a
fun place to visit are as critical to Main Street's future as recruiting
new businesses, rehabilitating buildings, and expanding parking.
Building on downtown's inherent assets -- rich architecture, personal
service, and traditional values and most of all, a sense of place -- the
Main Street approach has rekindled entrepreneurship, downtown
cooperation and civic concern. It has earned national recognition as a
practical strategy appropriately scaled to a community's local resources
and conditions. And because it is a locally driven program, all
initiative stems from local issues and concerns.
Historic Okeechobee Main Street utilizes
partnerships, local resources and initiative to support a comprehensive,
incremental approach to revitalization built around Okeechobee's unique
heritage and attributes to develop long term economic growth and pride
in the traditional area of downtown Okeechobee. Incorporating business
and property stakeholder input, Okeechobee Main Street will develop
projects that will improve all aspects of the downtown and north central
business district around the Courthouse.
The Okeechobee Main Street approach rekindles entrepreneurship, downtown cooperation and civic concern. Because it is a locally driven program, all initiatives stem from local issues and concerns. The Okeechobee Main Street program's success is based on a comprehensive strategy of work, tailored to local needs and opportunities, in four distinctive areas, often referred to as the Four Point Approach.
