Participate in the Future of Downtown

Huntington hosts open house for the City’s Downtown Master Plan

HUNTINGTON – The City of Huntington is currently developing a downtown master plan that will identify goals, policies, and action steps to guide development over the next 20 years. Public input will drive the vision and ideas put forth in the master plan, and the City of Huntington needs your ideas, comments, and feedback. As part of our continuing work on the plan, we have drafted initial plan vision goals and objectives and welcome the public’s feedback on this information.

Join us at the second public visioning workshop on Wednesday, January 31, 2024 from 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm at the Huntington Arts and Entrepreneurial Center (32 E. Franklin St.). Residents, business owners, patrons, employees, and visitors are invited to attend this community visioning workshop. It will be an open house format where you can stop by at any time and for as little as 15 minutes to share your ideas.

“Public input has been a cornerstone element in our planning process, and we invite the community to provide their input on the plan recommendations,” said Mayor Richard Strick. 

This plan will provide a clear direction for The City of Huntington to follow over the next 20 years. The master plan will include an analysis of existing physical and economic conditions, establish a vision and goals, and identify action steps that guide the growth and development of downtown in an efficient and effective manner. Don’t miss this opportunity to be a part of the vision for Huntington’s downtown! The City of Huntington needs your help to plan for what is best for the community’s future!
