The boundaries of the DDA are primarily contained within the Gateway and Downtown sections of the Village. There is also a small portion of the M-15 Commercial Corridor.

Market Analysis & Business Environment On September 13, 2017 a "Market Review and Business Recruitment Analysis" technical visit was provided to the Ortonville Downtown Development Authority, and coordinated by Main Street Oakland County and the National Main Street Center, Inc. The analysis reflects an examination of new market data collected prior to the visit based on a zip code analysis of the trade area, a review of the overall business mix for downtown Ortonville, and research of the area's basic underlying economics. This examination resulted in a set of "transformation strategies" that can be used as planning framework for not only addressing the most appropriate business recruitment targets, but as a focus for the more comprehensive revitalization efforts of the Ortonville DDA.
Below is a link to the report. In it you can review the recommendations on Transformation Strategies, key business recruitment targets, and other activities that might support this effort more comprehensively.
