where do you begin?
… wondered what your market was?
… wanted to offer special events and festivals?

… thought about how to offer incentive programs to attract
downtown housing and new commercial development?
A visit from a Technical
Assistance Team (TAT) offered by the NCDDA. These teams
composed of professional downtown
managers, offer a variety of services to help communities
evaluate their needs and develop a plan of action. They
follow the successful four point approach of the National
Main Street Center: Organization, Design, Economic Restructuring
and Promotion.
TAT’s offer two types of services:
1) A three-day visit, usually consisting of three
seasoned professionals who visit your community and interview,
evaluate and present a plan of action based
on their findings.
2) A one-day visit of one
to two seasoned professionals who are specialists in
a particular
area of concern
related to your community.
Board Development and Training – includes annual
evaluation, planning, annual work plans and other organizational
issues.
Overall Look at Program
or Downtown – based on the National Main Street
Center four-point model, a team can develop a plan for downtown revitalization
based on Economic Development, Design, Promotion and Organization.
Specialized Building Concept and Streetscapes – developing
plans and studies for proposed projects that need design
assistance and planning.
Volunteer Training and Development.
Planning and Development for Special Events and Festivals.
Service prices are based on the specific assistance
requested. Visits typically run from one to three days
and TAT fees depend on the number of professionals, expenses
and the specific assignment.
