Madison Main Street Program

Selected in 1984 to be one of the pilot cities for the Georgia Main Street Program, Madison established a special tax district for the central business district. The membership of the Downtown Business Council (DBC) includes every business enterprise and property owner within the district and is guided by the organizational branch, also known as the Main Street Advisory Board (MAB). Within the DBC membership, there are three group associations - Retial, Hospitality, and Professional. Main Street initiatives are devised and implemented by a full-time Main Street Director and three additional branches: promotions (Retail), design (see HPC), and economic restructuring (see DDA). Special projects and activities are organized by committees such as Antiques Co-Op, MadisonFest, etc. Main Street stresses cooperative efforts for a strong business core as well as downtown as a community gathering place for special events.
