Downtown Strategic Plan

Great downtowns do not happen by accident. The 2006 Northville Downtown Strategic Plan represents a vision for the future of Northville’s downtown.  The planning process helped establish an understanding of the basic principles that will make the City of Northville a vital community.  This Strategic Plan clearly defines objectives and action strategies that serve as a guide to decision-making over the next five to seven years.  Although the Plan’s primary focus is the Downtown Development Authority District, it also addresses the relationship between downtown and adjacent historic neighborhoods and parks. 

The process for development of the Downtown Strategic Plan was a successful collaboration of a broad cross section of the community.  A Downtown Steering Committee was appointed to guide the process and multiple opportunities were provided for community input.  Over ninety-five community members participated in the first workshop and many attended one or more of the twenty meetings that followed.  The resulting Downtown Strategic Plan is the product of countless hours of careful assessment, discussion, and decision-making by dedicated and committed community groups and individuals. 

The Downtown Strategic Plan was presented to City Council at a special meeting on June 26, 2006 and adopted at the City Council meeting on July 17, 2006. The plan will serve as a blueprint to help guide future growth and development of our community.
