Appointing the Next DDA

In their last regular meeting of 2015, the Downtown Development Authority took time to announce their new members and officers for the 2016 year.

New members Mona Lowe and Crystal Nadolski will be joining the council at the beginning of the new year.

Also, in January, the Board voted for Jeff Riblet to remain as Treasurer. The new officers announced will be Jim Stover as the new Chair of the DDA and Brad Simmons as the Vice Chair.

The DDA Board Members were also excited to host Chuck Scragg of the Greater Gilmer JDA for talks of cooperation and the future in the citizen input section of their meeting.

Additionally, the Board is still selling their Boardwalk plaques and posts for Christmas gifts to people who would like to honor or memorialize any friends or family.
