I believe downtown Milan is key to the city’s success, and my supporting Main Street is important to its continued growth. No one likes to see an empty downtown, so I would encourage people to give their support to Milan Main Street, too.

The perception of Milan has improved as a result of the efforts of Main Street. The events and activities they plan help draw people from around the region to shop our business, visit our community, and even purchase homes here.
I love Milan Main Street because they are always innovative and seeking great ways to help businesses and help the city have more fun.
Milan Main Street has helped to create a vibrant business district that connects people to place and offers amazing views of Ford Lake, especially at sunset. I love being able to walk downtown where I can shop, dine, experience events, and connect with friends and neighbors.

All of the activities and events planned by Milan Main Street are fun. They support our economy and help others to see our community as a vibrant and charming place to live and to visit.
I love that Milan Main Street markets and promotes our businesses and our community in print advertising, on the radio, and on billboards. What they are doing showcases just what a wonderful place Milan is. The billboards on US 23 have been fun to see.

From empty buildings and a downtown which was only a drive-by, Milan Main Street's efforts have brought about bustling shops, community activities and a sense of place and belonging. It is vital we continue to support our Main Street Program in order to ensure continued growth and success in our sweet little downtown.
Mary Kerkes
I support Milan Main Street because I believe that downtowns are special places in cities big and small. Unlike fast paced business districts where people speed in for fast food, gas and convenience items, downtowns need to be the gathering places for people to slow down and interact with each other. Shopping, dining, a beverage or two, and even entertainment options are what downtowns offer to residents. Come enjoy your downtown, relax, and stay a while.

I think it is great that Milan Main Street offers grants to improve facades in our downtown and to support the purchase and installation of those charming signs that hang from the store fronts. Those grants are just one thing Milan Main Street does to help our downtown look attractive and appealing.
