Abstract
Extension can play an important role in the development of a coordinated central business district revitalization effort. When viewed as an impartial observer without specific personal agendas, Extension is ideally suited to act as an organizing agent in the development of a coordinating committee structure. Communities of all types and sizes possess volunteers interested in revitalizing the central business district. Extension programming enabled these volunteers to realize their potentials and constraints, define their objectives, and develop strategies for action. The relationships that have been developed as a result of the project have been far-reaching and should be long-lasting. The methods that have been successfully employed in this program can be used by others in Extension facing similar tasks.
