Changes to Main, Elm Street Acts

Bills signed by Governor Ed Rendell change parts of both the Main Street and Elm Street programs by giving them options on how they can use grant money.

House Bill 420 amends the Main Street Act to allow grants made under that act to be used for marketing and promoting residential opportunities within the Main Street area.

House Bill 2233 amends the Elm Street Program Act to allow basic grants under the program to be extended for an additional five years, and to allow grants to be used for promoting the development of traditional consumer goods and services, like banks, grocery stores and pharmacies.
