The Downtown Business District is seeking to hire a director to oversee the day to day business of the district. During a recent meeting with the Laclede County Commission, the Downtown Business District requested financial support from the County. According to Darrell Pollock, Chamber of Commerce Executive Director, the restoration of the Downtown Business district would benefit the entire community.

The Downtown Business District has received a commitment from the City of Lebanon of $15-thousand dollars and asked the County to put in some money as well.

The District is funded in part through a business fee which is paid by the businesses who operate in the district. The District also announced to the Commissioners that they have received an anonymous donation of $675-thousand over the next three years, but that can’t be used to pay salaries.
