This plan outlines the goals, strategies, and policies for Maritime Washington. It describes how the heritage area will support our communities in celebrating, maintaining, and sharing their maritime stories and resources. Its approval represents the culmination of over a decade of hard work and significant collaboration between hundreds of individuals, organizations, governments, and Tribes along our state’s saltwater shoreline.

These five revitalization efforts underscore that the Main Street Approach is effective in a diversity of towns and cities because it builds on each area’s distinctive sense of place, putting historic downtowns at the heart of economic and community development.

"Shopping local is absolutely critical if we want to build and sustain our local economies," said Duane Fladland—State Director of the Washington Small Business Development Center <https://preservewa.us2.list -manage.com/track/click?u=907c69b081f5ea7a5b595e058&id=4cb9471aec&e=2a9ec8db03> —in a recent news release. "When you spend your money locally, the ripple effects can be tremendous." A larger amount of the money that shoppers spend at locally owned businesses stays in their communities than the same amount of money spent at large retail chains. According to data from the American Independent Business Alliance <https://preservewa.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=907c69b081f5ea7a5b595e058&id=2703b833dd&e=2a9ec8db03> , for every $100 spent at a large retail chain, about $48 stays in the community. By contrast, for every $100 spent at a locally owned business, how much of it stays in the community?
