Currently in the early design phase, the Downtown Streetscape and Utility Improvements project will address the roadway, sidewalk, and underground utility needs, as wells as ADA compliance issues throughout downtown. The last major widespread Central Business District rehabilitation project was completed in the mid-1980’s. Over the last year, during open workshops and stakeholder meetings, the Village Board discussed specific elements of the project to offer further direction to staff and the design team. The following topics were discussed:
- Construction Cost
- Tree Plan
- Construction Schedule
- Materials Selection Process
- Lighting Improvements
- Pocket Parks
- Streetscape Elements and Renderings
- Online Public Input/Ideas
The current phase of the project is expected to wrap up this summer, with phase II design anticipated to begin in the fall. Residents, businesses and visitors can gather more information on the project and explore past and current ideas, plus share your own on the project's website.
