From director at rt66mainstreet.org Mon Jun 1 09:58:16 2020 From: director at rt66mainstreet.org (Christine Hamner) Date: Mon, 1 Jun 2020 10:58:16 -0400 Subject: [MainstreetManagers] OK Advocacy ltr Message-ID: <1880654591.111909.1591023496563.JavaMail.vpopmail@atl4oxapp01pod5> Our information is correct and you have our approval. The letter looks great, thank you so much for putting it together.  Christine Hamner Executive Director Tulsa Route 66 Main Street rt66mainstreet.org o. 918.445.4457 c. 918-809-2453 From: "Vicki Davis" Date: Fri, May 29, 2020 11:30 am To: "mainstreetmanagers at lists.onenet.net" Subject: [MainstreetManagers] OK Advocacy ltr Hello all,   I just received the approval of our OK advocacy letter to Senator Lankford.  As I mentioned in our zoom meeting this morning, this initial contact is specifically to Senator Lankford, as he is a member of the appropriations committee.    Please check the attached packet to ensure your name and program information is correct.  Also, please respond to this message your approval to be included as a “sign on”.   I included all programs in my draft and will remove any names who either do not respond or request to be removed.    In my outreach to you for examples of how our MS programs are addressing and busting through COVID-19, I was greatly encouraged by your creativity and resilience.  Although this letter only allowed for a few, you all are doing great things.  I was inspired and feel that our legislators will be also.    Other actions at this time: ·         I encourage you be knowledgeable of this proposal enough to be able to summarize the request and be prepared to discuss the need in your community to support programming and businesses in the recovery of COVID-19. ·         Inform your local representatives of the effort. [I will be talking to our local House Representative, Jay Steagall today just to let him know of the proposal.  [Why not let the information come from us?] ·         I hope to meet with a staffer from Senator Lankford’s office at a legislation breakfast next Tuesday morning to hand deliver this letter and proposal packet and invite/suggest a meeting with their appropriations issues staff to discuss further.    We hope these are just the beginning steps for opening this conversation and look to a future call with our Senator and Patrice Frey as an ultimate goal in this effort.  I anticipate in the future that our efforts will include additional letters to other elected officials once this proposal moves to action.    Again, please take a look at the attached and let me know of your approval ASAP . . . by the end of today, preferably.    Have a great weekend!

The State of Oklahoma is launching the Oklahoma Business Relief Program (OBRP), which was developed to help local businesses overcome the economic challenges of COVID-19. OBRP offers vital funding for businesses that have suffered revenue loss due to the pandemic. It is similar to the PPP program, and the maximum grant is $25,000. On Wednesday, Sean Kouplen, Secretary of Commerce and Workforce Development, is discussing the program during the weekly calls. Jeremy Zeller is part of the OBRP team, and will be on the Friday MS Director's zoom call to discuss it more and answer questions. Attached is an information sheet, and below are links to the website and the Wednesday zoom call information. Please share with your merchants.

Below are the original training topics for August and November. Please let me know if you want to continue with these, or other more pressing issues. Virtual Tours was brought up on our ED zoom call on Friday. Would you want a deeper dive into Norma's session on "The Value of Your Community's Main Street?" Storytelling may still be relevant. I want to hear from you. August 25-27: Team and Partnership Development, Action Items, and Storytelling Location: Kendall Whittier (Tulsa) All Main Streets have a story, so how do you tell that story and use it to connect with others and promote your community? Besides storytelling, we will explore turning action from a dream to action as reality, and finding the right people/groups to make it happen. The Director's Roundtable will happen as well. Please note this date has changed from early August due to speaker availability. This is a required training. You will receive 25 quality assurance points for attending. November 3-5: Branding, Diverse Fund Development, and Award Nominations Location: Main Street Altus The OMSC is working with the NMSC to get "Mr. Branding" himself, Ben Muldrow, for this session. You will learn the value of an organizational brand, brand consistency, brand implementation, and more. Norma Ramirez de Miess will educate us on the importance of diversified funding and how to achieve it. We will also cover award nominations for 2021, and engage in our usual Director's Roundtable. This is a required training and you will receive 25 quality assurance points for attending. OBRP The OBRP program is proving to be EXTREMELY popular. Please meet with your banker and get your application in ASAP. Have a good day, Buffy Buffy Hughes State Main Street Director Oklahoma Department of Commerce 900 N.
