SUBJECT:
Title
Approval of the second and final reading of an ordinance amending the bylaws of the New Braunfels Downtown Development Board to reflect the National Main Street Center’s refreshed Four Point Approach.
Body
BACKGROUND / RATIONALE:
City Council met on February 12, 2018 and voted to approve the ordinance (6-0-0, Councilmember Monceballez absent).
In 2017, the National Main Street Center unveiled a new administrative model for Main Street programs that allows local programs added flexibility to plan their work using a task-based committee structure instead of following the traditional four point standing committee structure. The proposed updates to the Downtown Board’s bylaws reflect this refreshed approach and remove remnant language from the previous bylaws revision regarding the board structure and size.
