Downtown Whitewater Board of Directors


The Downtown Whitewater, Inc. Board of Directors is the legal entity responsible for overseeing Whitewater’s downtown revitalization program under the guidance of the Wisconsin Main Street Program, including the budget, staff, and program effectiveness. The board is a decisive, action-oriented group of individuals that recognizes that each Whitewater community member is a stakeholder in the downtown revitalization process. Board members must be willing to:
  • Understand and promote the Downtown Whitewater mission and goals.
  • Contribute knowledge, effort, time, and/or labor to downtown revitalization.
  • Attend board meetings on a regular basis and commit to a two-year term.
  • Participate in one of the standing committees: Promotions, Economic Restructuring, Design, Organization, or Parking.
  • Promote unity within the group and seek to resolve internal conflict.
  • Support board decisions even when he or she disagrees with the majority.
  • Offer opinions honestly, constructively, and without reservation.
  • Help the board stay focused on the “Action Plan” and discourage it from being distracted by secondary issues or projects not included in the plan
  • Actively seek additional participation of all forms; encourage new members and input in the downtown revitalization process; recruit new board members.
