Jackson to host meeting on downtown revitalization

Editor's note: the following story has been edited from its original version to correct the day of the meeting.

The city of Jackson will host a public meeting June 6 to present the strategic plan developed for the uptown area as part of the Downtown Revitalization and Economic Assistance for Missouri program.

Jackson was one of only five Missouri communities chosen to participate in the DREAM Initiative in 2011, the last year the program was offered.

The DREAM Initiative -- working with state agencies including the Missouri Development Finance board, Missouri Department of Economic Development and the Missouri Housing Development Commission -- provides planning assistance for downtowns.

PGAV planners, the contractors responsible for the planning, will present their designs at 5:30 p.m. in the Missouri room of Jackson City Hall, 101 Court St.

For more information, contact Building and Planning superintendent Janet Sanders at (573) 243-2300 or jsanders@jacksonmo.org.
