Riverwalk Project in Village


Members at the Sept. 28th Annual Meeting reviewed the three projects that have been proposed for 2006/2007: Profile the River, Develop a Canoe Route or Build a Boardwalk/Riverwalk.

After open discussion the members voted to revise the third proposal and focus on developing a Riverwalk along the River at the back of the site for the new Village Hall. In addition there may be some necessary shoreline restoration work involved with the project.

Because archectitural plans are currently being developed for the Village Hall, it was felt that this part of the Boardwalk/Riverwalk proposal was the most urgent. (Plans for building a Boardwalk in Village Park were temporarily put on hold.)

Members felt that we should also look for ways to work with the Village on plans for the parking lot adjacent to the Riverwalk. The Village will be looking for ways to implement requirements of the Clean Water Act. We would like to explore new ideas for storm water management relating to parking lot situations. We also felt that we would like to explore grant funding opportunities that could be helpful in financing this project.
