From Buffy.Hughes at okcommerce.gov Wed Jan 9 11:29:27 2019 From: Buffy.Hughes at okcommerce.gov (Buffy Hughes) Date: Wed, 9 Jan 2019 17:29:27 +0000 Subject: [MainstreetManagers] 2019 Main Street Now Conference Message-ID: <3B19F7A718BB7A499033088B5CBB6703010F9AF893@EML-EXA04.agency.OK.local> Good morning. Multiple Oklahoma Main Street communities expressed concern that their budgets will not support the Executive Director attending the Main Street Now Conference in Seattle this year. Attending the conference is mandatory per the terms of the annual agreement, but we are sympathetic to the issue. The OMSC center and the Advisory Board discussed the situation, and therefore, effective immediately - * Main Street Executive Directors will be required to attend the Main Street Now Conference every other year. * New Main Street Executive Directors will be required to attend the Main Street Now Conference at the first available opportunity after accepting the position even if the out-going director attended the conference the previous year. The changes will be reflected in the next annual agreement. The Main Street Now Conference is still the best way to network with other directors and practitioners from around the nation, and learn about new innovative ideas and time-tested solutions. I encourage everyone to attend annually. The 2020 conference is scheduled to be closer to Oklahoma, and therefore not as expensive. Please contact me if you have any questions. Have a good day.

Ron Frantz was nominated for the "Service-Learning Teaching Award" by the Gibbs College of Architecture at OU. The committee asked for a letter of support from the OMSC to accompany the nomination. Ron and his students have worked in a number of Main Street communities. Please provide information about any projects Ron and his students worked on and the impact it had on your local Main Street. The letter is due on Friday, January 18th and I would appreciate receiving the information by Wednesday, January 16th. He is deserving of the award!

Below is a brief update on what is happening at the Department of Commerce and a ruling on services for Marijuana Dispensaries. Please contact me if you have any questions, or comments. Department of Commerce As you know, the Oklahoma Department of Commerce has a new Executive Director, Brent Kisling, and a new Secretary of Commerce and Workforce Development, Sean Kouplen. Both are Main Street supporters, and Mr. Kisling asked me to be a part of his leadership team. We meet every Monday morning, and he wants to know both success stories and issues. This is a step forward for the Main Street program, and we need to take full advantage of the opportunity to be heard. Please let the Main Street staff or me know about both. Marijuana Dispensaries The OMSC received a request to assist a marijuana dispensary in a Main Street community. Legal Counsel at the Oklahoma Department of Commerce stated that even though the marijuana business is legal in the State of Oklahoma, it is still illegal with the Federal Government. Main Street is part of the Oklahoma Commerce Department and Commerce receives Federal funds, and it would not be acceptable for Main Street to work with the marijuana dispensary.
