MISSION STATEMENT

Carbondale Main Street's mission is to enhance and promote the economic and social vitality of Carbondale's Main Steeet district though the ongoing cultivation of a unique and quality atmosphere that attracts businesses and shoppers to our downtown. Through the combined efforts of the Board of Directors, the Executive Director and the many volunteers on four committees, we cultivate this atmosphere in the following ways:

1) Promote consumer and pedestrian traffic by implementing special events, festivals and marketing campaigns that bring more people downtown.
2) Design public streetscape and beautification projects which reflect the diversity, talents and
character of the community.
3) Focus on the economic structuring of the
business, retail residential and entertainment sectors
to produce a healthy economic mix.
4) Organize opportunities so that the whole community can participate in contributing to the enjoyment, health and economic well being of the heart of Carbondale...
The Main Street District.
