Post-pandemic reflections and lessons learned to take forward

The creation of Social Districts was authorized by the State of Michigan in 2020, as a response to the pandemic. Join us to learn how three Oakland County communities established their social districts and some of the lessons they learned along the way. Downtown leaders from Farmington, Lake Orion and Ferndale will share their experiences with the approval process, starting the districts and their ongoing operational realities.
