Plans for the new Town Square^
To reconstruct Andersen Hill and Bridge, the Town swapped land with the Church. The swap included some of Town Square property. Even with this, the Church gave more than they got. This adjustment resulted in moving the western border of the Town Square 25′ to the east. For plans, please see the latest community presentation, linked above.
Thanks to the entire community for input on this project. A very special thanks goes to Wendy Stokes, Vic Harris, Martine Amade and Chad Droste for heading this project up!
