About Us
In 2002, seeing a need to restore, preserve and grow downtown they applied to become a Main Street community. Marshalltown is now one of the 40 plus communities across Iowa who are a part of this elite association of Main Street communities.
MCBD is ran by a volunteer board of business owners, community members, and business professionals. Deb Millizer serves as the executive director. Since our beginning, our volunteers have put in over 55,000 hours to make sure our programs, events and members are continuing to best serve and influence to grow and better our downtown.
