Main Street, historic preservation team up to oversee construction, expansion in Buda

Buda’s Main Street program in joint effort with the Historic Preservation Committee will bring several projects benefiting business owners and local residents in 2020.

Main Street Program Manager Maggie Gillespie said it will include HPC in its grant application process, kick-off the first HPC month celebration in May and work together to expand Main Street boundaries. 

As downtown sees an influx of construction, Main Street plans to use its Historic Preservation grant, valued at $65,000, to help businesses that may be affected by the construction over the next two years. The joint effort between programs will make sure that grant recipients follow HPC guidelines.
