Dear Mayor and City Council:
The Ames Main Street District is interested in working with City staff to develop design
guidelines for downtown. The City may want to consider providing incentives to businesses
that follow the guidelines, such as property tax abatement, neighborhood improvement grants
or low-interest loans.
Our Design Committee looks forward to working with the City on this issue.
Sincerely,
David Durlam
President
Ames Main Street District
