Community Sense
The East Passyunk Avenue Business District operates under the State of Pennsylvania’s Main Street Model. We have a full time Main Street Manager, and three active volunteer based committees. These committees need dedicated volunteers to function. Below is our 2008 meetings schedule and brief description of what each committee is responsible for.
If you are interested in becoming a committee volunteer, or to get more information, please contact Bob Theil, 215-336-1455.
