On friday September 15th, The Town of Gorham hosted the Maine Downtown Advisory Council as part of an application to become a member of the Maine Downtown Network. The visit included a walking tour of the village and was attended by members of the Advisory Council, town staff, and the Gorham Village Alliance Organizational Committee.
Membership in the network will allow Gorham to gain access to the National Maine Street Center, which helps communities revitalize their downtown using a four point approach: Organization, Promotion, Design, and Economic Restructuring. We expect to learn of approval to the network in the next few weeks.
