Economic Enhancement Committee
The Economic Enhancement Committee is one of four standing committees at New London Main Street. Please contact the committee chair for further information about participating.
Chair: Barry Runyan
Meeting Time: Third Thursday of the month at the Main Street Offices at 5:30 PM
The Economic Enhancement Committee works on the nuts and bolts of economic development in the downtown Historic Waterfront District. It analyzes current economic conditions, seeks sources of business funding, seeks to improve economic conditions for existing businesses, recruits new businesses, and generally facilitates new and existing NLMS programs to increase the likelihood they will be beneficial to the economic climate in the district.
The Goal of the Economic Enhancement Committee is to strengthen and broaden the economic base of the downtown through collecting, interpreting, and using market data; strengthening and retaining current businesses; stimulating the adaptive reuse of existing space; and recruiting new businesses into the downtown.
