Organization involves getting everyone working toward the same goal and
assembling the appropriate human and financial resources to implement a Main
Street revitalization program. A governing board and standing committees
make up the fundamental organizational structure of the volunteer-driven
program.
Volunteers are coordinated and supported by a paid program director
as well. This structure not only divides the workload and clearly delineates
responsibilities, but also builds consensus and cooperation among the various
stakeholders. From The National Trust for Historic Preservation website: |
