With the completion of the City’s Comprehensive Plan in 2017, the City has a strong vision moving forward.

Several tasks in the Comprehensive Plan relate to revitalization of the downtown. The next step in realizing several of those tasks is completing a Downtown Design Plan and Preliminary Engineering.

Council authorized staff to submit a grant application to DOLA through the Mineral Impact Program on August 2, 2017 for the project.

The City was successful with its grant application and received $100,000, which was matched by $100,000 in the 2018 Annual Budget.
