As the city realizes our shared vision of a revitalized downtown, it is crucial that the city develops a unique atmosphere by which residents can gather to enjoy downtown amenities. This project seeks to infuse several elements including events, interactive downtown décor, walking paths, and natural gathering areas for reflection and communal enjoyment. The growth and development of the city’s festivals and events has identified a need for a venue. This initiative will serve the community as a social, cultural and educational center for residents and visitors.

Staff presented to the Commission at Strategic Planning. We met with Chad to discuss the necessary infrastructure needed. It appears that we will need more time to determine the utilities needed for the site as there are existing ones, but the locations are not ideal.

We are also looking into purchasing seating, etc. to activate it soon while we discuss options moving forward. We are also waiting to see what happens with the Post Office property.
