The Downtown Bradford Business District Authority Mission Statement

The DBBDA meets the first Wednesday of each month at 8 a.m. on the 4th floor of Old City Hall.

The committee has been organized as a municipal business district authority and serves as a cornerstone organization of volunteers dedicated to the revitalization and development of the historic downtown Bradford area within the contest of long term strategic goals of the city, county and region.

Working in accordance with the Four Point Main Street Approach, other institutions and individuals in the region, the DBBDA serves as a catalyst to provide leadership, organization and a forum for public dialogue, research, planning, grant writing, and action to:
