President of Wisconsin Main Street, Joe Lawniczak- WIMS Design Specialist, J.D.

The Main Street Resource Team is one of the most
significant technical visits our program will receive as a designated Wisconsin
Main Street Community. The team
will consist of these five individuals and they have selected “Surviving
Construction” as the primary focus of their visit here in Tomahawk.
Over the course of three days, the Team will interview key members of
the local Main Street program and of the community to learn enough about our
identified issues or problems so that they can suggest a strategy for local
action.
The groups that they will be interviewing are as
follows: Director of Main Street Lori Koppelmann, Members from all 4 of the
Main Street Committees of Economic Restructuring , Promotions, Design, and
Organization, Elected Officials/City Staff, Business and Property Owners,
Preservationists, Members of our Financial Community, Key People Involved with
the North 4th Street Construction Project, Main Street Board of
Directors, Residents, Local Media, Realtors, and Industry Leaders.
The Resource Team will roll
out their ideas to the public on Thursday Jan 28th at 6:00pm at
Tomahawk Community Bank. All are
welcome to attend.
