The Better Hometown Board of Directors is a working body of seven voting members and one member of Council created and appointed by City Council. Read by-laws by clicking on the provided link.
The Mission of the Tybee Island Better Hometown Program is to:
- facilitate efforts to revitalize, redevelop and enhance the business corridor;
- create a sense of place and improve the quality of life for residents, business owners and visitors using the Main Street Four Point Approach;
- encourage quality economic growth and development while preserving Tybee Island's unique architectural heritage;
- support and encourage the arts as a cultural endeavor and economic engine on the Island.
This effort takes support and assistance from all. Therefore, Committees are forming to help with the foundation of the proven "Main Street four-point approach" tailored to meet local needs and opportunities. The four points are Organization, Promotion, Design and Economic Restructuring. The four points are combined to address all of the commercial district's needs.
