ODA is a member of the Virginia Main Street Program and the National Main Street Center. We follow the Four-Point Approach developed by the National Main Street Center. Activities are focused on economic development, design, promotion and organization. Leadership of ODA is provided by a volunteer Board of Directors and an active committee system."
