  • The Downtown Development Authority's (DDA) mission is to promote economic growth and revitalization in Downtown Colon. The DDA will accomplish this mission by:

    • Improving and maintaining a solid and user-friendly infrastructure

    • Marketing Downtown Colon to consumers and businesses

    • Encouraging preservation of Colon's downtown

    • By fulfilling this mission, and DDA will enhance not only downtown, but the entire City of Colon.

  • The objectives of the DDA are to recruit new businesses, rehabilitate buildings, expand parking, strengthen public participation, and make the downtown a fun and beautiful place to visit.

  • Our most immediate projects have been MSU’s Sustainable Built Environments Initiative. Our Latest Meeting was April 26th. It was a huge success. More to come
