OUR STORIES

I invite the supporters of Rethos to learn more about our Main Street program and visit these communities. Historic buildings give an immediate unique sense of place to each of our program areas, so preservation is a key element to Design and Promotion – two of the Main Street Four Point Approaches™.

The Federal Office of Management and Budget has finally opened the gates on the Historic Preservation Funds that had been withheld, despite being appropriated by Congress many months ago.

Another successful Minnesota Main Streets State Conference is now in the books. With program directors, board members, community leaders, and others from across the state (and a few from Wisconsin, too) dedicated to revitalizing and celebrating the heart of their towns and cities.  

The Federal programs that administer, support, and fund historic preservation and community development are threatened by cuts.

Budget cuts are particularly threatening to Main Street communities and underserved communities in urban and suburban areas, as they help fund important community efforts that support small towns, historic buildings, and local businesses.

Pass a bill that will improve and modernize the Historic Tax Credit program.
