Main Street Washington's business and property owners may take advantage of the Design Assistance program offered through the Department of Community Affairs and the Georiga Main Street Program.  For a small fee, the design assistance program provides site planning services, paint color recommendations, facade improvement recommendations and other suggestions for appropriate exterior improvements to historic buildings. 

Numerous buildings in Downtown Washington have benefited from this service.  Property owners will receive a colored rendering of the proposed building improvements which is often helpful in obtaining the necessary permits and approvals from the City of Washington and the Washington Historic Preservation Commission.
