The feeling that I get is that Illinois Main Street does not provide any oversight beyond help the towns set up the program, and providing some training to the Executive Director and board. I don't think they check up on the individual Main Streets after that.
Does anyone care? Only the ones on the board, and the last few remaining volunteers. They are not doing anything beyond throwing the occasional party (Holiday Fest is Dec. 5th); beyond that they add no value to downtown.
