The Discovery Special Improvement District (SID), under the direction of Executive Director, Cleve Ricksecker, has begun a neighborhood envisioning process (i.e. series of informational interviews with property owners and representatives) for the Discovery District. At this time, the SID has interviewed over 35 representatives from organizations, businesses, and properties in the Discovery District regarding what they see as the strengths and challenges of the district, opportunities for capital improvements, and a long-term vision for what the Discovery District could become. Envisioning interviews will continue through October of 2010, and the SID hopes to interview approximately 50 stakeholders by that time. Next steps include a compilation of neighborhood suggestions and opportunities for improvements to be presented at the Discovery SID Annual Meeting on November 18th at 4pm at the Catholic Foundation (257 E. Broad Street). Please contact Melanie Houston at 614-645-5256 with questions regarding the project or the Discovery SID annual meeting.
