What We Do
-
Help keep free city parking lots FREE
The current yearly maintenance cost for the city parking lots located off of Coit and Plainfield; one behind Stonesthrow and one behind Culver CPA is $11,000. Because of the generous support of the Creston Business Association members, these parking lots are kept free for use for Creston business patrons and employees. Parking fees are provided in addition to membership dues.
-
Help to fund an online platform for Creston Businesses
Members currently contribute to funding the start up and maintenance of this site, bestincreston.com and it’s associated social media presence. This platform helps to promote Creston businesses and coordinate community clean-ups and district events.
-
Help provide street beautification for Creston
Members fund and coordinate decorating the light poles with wreaths in December for the holiday and offer options for members to purchase spring flower planters each year for their storefront.
