One of DDA's main goals for 2024's holiday campaign was to support the businesses in the district. We did this by creating a community-driven “bingo game”, Sparkle & Stroll, that encouraged residents and visitors to shop and dine at local businesses. Participating businesses were given promotional materials, Sparkle Cards, and stamps. Customers were able to collect stamps throughout a 6-week period and submit stamped cards for a chance to win prizes. 

 

To get a better idea of how this promotion was received, we recently surveyed both the patrons who shopped and dined as part of the promotion and the participating businesses. We're encouraged by the feedback we received and hope to use it to improve the program in the future. 

South Metro House Options (SMHO) was recently awarded federal tax credits through the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program for the development of a new property located at 5848 S Ramp Street called Montview Flats. The 50-unit building will seamlessly integrate with the downtown surroundings.

Every restaurant, retail shop, and service-based business located in the DDA's boundaries has its own landing page in our online Business Directory. We invite you to review your business landing page and make any updates that may be necessary. Updates can include anything from new images, hours of operation, business description, social media links, and more.
