1 Stakeholders and Money Donna Ann Harris, Heritage Consulting Inc. & Diane C. Williams, Business Districts Inc.
2 Introduction Brief overview of Main Street Four Point Approach Integration of NYMS Housing point Involvement and role of stakeholders (owners/merchants) in downtown revitalization Overview of commercial district economics
3 Introduction Expectations of return, role of incentives and willingness to invest Motivating owners to invest, breaking down barriers to encourage participation What is really possible Q and A
4 Review: Main Street 4 Point Approach What it is: Volunteer driven, historic preservation based economic development program Why we do it: Downtown s role in the community s tax base, heart/soul of town
5 Review: Main Street Approach How it gets done: Comprehensive approach to downtown revitalization; stresses incremental, quality improvements; self help Who does it: Volunteer committees do the work, manager as orchestra conductor
6 Comprehensive approach to revitalization Promotion sells the image and promise of downtown Organization gets people working together Design makes downtown clean, safe and attractive to shoppers ER strengthens and diversifies downtown s economic base
7 4 Committees--Design educates others about good design provides design advice encourages quality improvements to public and private properties plans downtown s development motivates people to make improvements through incentives
8 4 Committees-Organization raises money for projects and administration recruits and manages volunteers helps manage the staff promotes the program to the public manages the money
9 4 Committees Economic Restructuring learns about current economic conditions and opportunities for growth strengthens existing businesses & recruits new finds new uses for traditional MS buildings develops incentives and capital for rehab monitors economic performance of district
10 4 Committees--Promotion understands the changing market and competition identify downtown assets defines your market niche creates new image campaigns retail promotions special events
11 Board of directors/ms Committee is responsible for raising all the money sets direction through annual work plan hires, fires, rewards the manager comprised of 4 committee chairs and other stakeholders information flow via committees
12 Why MS has been so successful across the country is comprehensive success is incremental action oriented, not planning oriented encourages partnerships
13 Success. builds on existing assets stresses quality acknowledges that change is hard promotes self help
14 2006 Reinvestment Statistics Dollars Reinvested:- Total amount of reinvestment in physical improvements from public and private sources.$41.6 Billion Average reinvestment per community (i):$11,083,273 Net gain in businesses:77,799 Net gain in jobs:349,148 Number of building rehabilitations: 186,820 Reinvestment Ratio:- the average number of dollars generated in each community for every dollar used to operate the local Main Street program.$25.76 to $1
15 Role of housing in the mix Main Street encourages downtown living and upper story renovation, but not storefront living residents add vitality and shoppers to downtown housing development is an outgrowth of Main Street success
16 More on housing housing is often a later stage product after owners have begun to invest in storefront rehab economic integration of downtown is essential for a viable business mix to thrive
17 A variety of organizing vehicles for downtown revitalization through an existing nonprofit Merchants association Chamber BID CDC NPC RPC
18 Variety of organizing models free standing new local nonprofit organization hybrids of all of these
19 Who is a stakeholder in downtown? property owners merchants all community residents local government
20 More stakeholders community organizations (garden club, service clubs) local/regional economic development/planning groups schools media (radio, TV, newspapers, bogs)
21 More stakeholders downtown churches/synagogue s/mosques chamber/merchants/ biz association banks OTHERS?
22 Why stakeholders must be involved are the main investors and users of downtown real estate pay a substantial portion of town s real estate and sales tax avoids complaints and ill will; encourages transparency promotes inclusion and forward focus
23 How stakeholders benefit increasing foot traffic will lift all merchants addressing crime and safety problems, and sprucing up helps the entire town commercial rents increase, better quality retail tenants
24 Ways to build formal stakeholder involvement As a board members of your existing organization As MS committee members (if an already existing org) As members of a new advisory committee As committee members of 4 MS committees
25 What to ask stakeholders for Their time Be explicit about volunteer time commitments for board or committee members Provide real orientation, in person and on paper
26 What to ask for Their vocal support in public/private In the press, and as advocates to others in downtown Make connections to their network Their financial support Become a member of your organization Match the NYMS funds
27 Grafting a Main Street agenda onto your existing organization Bring together public and private interests Establish tasks/agenda exclusively for the revitalization of downtown
28 Grafting Main Street on Maintain focus on issues that affect downtown and local issues Develop new activities, become a symbol of renewal and future for downtown
29 The Money Stakeholders Who has what at risk? Do property owners and business owners have the same goals? Maybe What about owner-occupied properties? How can New York s housing point enable more money?

34 Real Estate Ownership Investors: Active and Legacy Owner-Occupied Perspectives on Investment Return Income, Appreciation, and Asset Management Tenanting Ownership Strategies: Cash Cows, Owner Fun, etc. The Role of Speculation-Real and Perceived
35 What Presents an Obstacle? Regulatory Requirements--Too much or too little Building Code and Life Safety Business Friendly Emphasis on Process versus Result Local/Regional Construction Costs I m from government and here to help. Unfamiliarity with Historic Preservation
36 What Inspires Confidence? Commitment to change, or a plan for change Local government commitment Visible evidence External investment--increased activity, new owners, or employment changes Internal investment--individual business growth Improving real estate market
