The Chapel Hill Downtown Partnership is charged with bringing the resources of the Town, University, and the downtown community together to maintain, enhance and promote downtown as a social, cultural and spiritual center of Chapel Hill through economic development. Our role is to manage and to lead downtown for sustainability and denser growth by educating, promoting, and building community vision for downtown.

Funded through an appropriation from the Town of Chapel Hill, the UNC, and through the downtown MSD tax, the Downtown Partnership is a nonprofit organization that offers a wide-array of services to downtown business and property owners.
