Linton warned it may be removed from OCRA Main Street program over missing updates
Summary
A commission speaker said Fred Glenn at OCRA is awaiting information updates for Linton’s Main Street designation and warned the city could be removed if updates aren’t provided; commissioners agreed to follow up with Beth Mason, who holds detailed application materials.
A commission speaker reported that Fred Glenn at OCRA is awaiting information updates for the Main Street site tied to Linton and warned the city could be removed from the program if it does not provide those updates.
The speaker said the email came to the city via a member of the commission and that Beth Mason has the records needed to respond. "I got an email today from Fred Glenn from OCRA who is awaiting information updates for the Main Street that Indiana Linton was selected for," the speaker said. Commissioners discussed contacting Mason and arranging the necessary updates.
The Main Street designation is tied to state-run support and technical assistance for downtown revitalization; in this meeting commissioners emphasized that failure to supply requested information could jeopardize their standing in the program. The commission referenced Energize Linton as a local partner in downtown work and noted that staff and volunteers should coordinate to locate the outstanding materials.
No formal motion or vote on the matter was taken at the meeting. Commissioners said they will follow up to obtain the requested documents from Beth Mason and provide the updates to OCRA to avoid removal from the program.
