Board Eligibility: Under standard non-profit bylaws for Main Street programs, the Board of Directors must maintain
a majority of members who are district property owners or business operators. Associate members outside the
district can serve on committees (Organization, Promotion, Design, or Economic Vitality) but may face restrictions
on holding certain officer positions on the board.
Voting Rights: Depending on the current tier (e.g., Supporter vs. Champion), associate status may be a
non-voting membership level regarding official corporate business, though they are usually invited to attend the
Annual Membership Meeting.
