Downtown Greenfield

J

Joanie Fitzwater, Zoning Administrator with the City of Greenfield spoke to Kiwanis about the Downtown Greenfield Revitalization.  The revitalization effort is supported by grants and matching funds from several sources. 

The current planning efforts center around three areas:

1.      Structure Inventory
2.      Economic Strategy
3.      Land Plan

Fitzwater stated that we need to capitalize on what we already have.  She also stated that Historic Preservation is a goal of the revitalization but that does not mean the downtown will be a museum, it will remain a business district.
