Monthly Program Reporting

For communities to gauge their economic impact, it is important that we capture specific data in a timely manner. At the end of the month, all Main Street cities, regardless of their individual designation, have 30 days to submit their information into a monthly Community Activity Report (CAR) link located on the top right-hand side of the Georgia Main Street Program website.

All information reported is based on the information from the previous month’s impact. For example, the monthly report for April should be completed by the end of May, and the monthly report for May should be completed by the end of June.

Upon completion of this report, managers will receive an email providing a copy of that month’s information submitted for your community. These emails are a great tool to help you track your own program’s impact. We strongly recommend that you provide a copy of your program’s current monthly report to your Main Street board of directors and city council. At the end of the year, the Office of Downtown Development will provide all reporting communities with an annual report of their community’s statistics. At the end of each month Main Street communities have 30 days to input their information into a Monthly Community Activity Report . . .

We have created a video to walk you through how to complete the monthly report for your community. You can access this video along with other recorded webinars through our Georgia Main Street YouTube channel at youtube.com/ gamainst.
