Design Committee

The Design Committee is made up of architects, landscaped designers, builders, historic preservationists, planners, interior designers, civil engineers, gardeners, property owners and Main Street neighborhood residents, as appointed by the Muskegon Main Street Board of Directors. The Design committee consists of at least 7 members, a quorum of 4 which must be present at meetings where façade improvement grant applications are reviewed.
