\"Unite<\/a>JAMESTOWN – The future of North Main Street from 6th Street in downtown Jamestown to the I-86 interchange in the Town of Ellicott will be the subject of a public meeting set for Tuesday, November 24, from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Lillian V. Ney Renaissance Center<\/strong>, corner of Washington Street and West Third Street.<\/p>\n

The meeting is part of \u201cUnite North Main,<\/strong>\u201d a project launched last month by the Jamestown Renaissance Corporation<\/strong> (JRC) to improve one of the city\u2019s busiest gateway corridors. A master plan for the street is the project\u2019s first phase and will be completed during the winter by Clark Patterson Lee<\/strong>, a design firm with an office on North Main Street.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe goal of Unite North Main is to identify and ultimately implement strategies to improve residential quality of life along the corridor, to make the roadway more functional, safe, and attractive, and to boost the overall impression that local residents and visitors have when they travel the street,\u201d said Greg Lindquist, JRC\u2019s executive director. \u201cImproving North Main Street, and using it as a template for improving the city\u2019s other gateway corridors, is crucial to the overall success of our downtown and neighborhood revitalization efforts.\u201d<\/p>\n

The public meeting on November 24 – the first of several public engagement efforts that are being planned as part of the project – will give residents an opportunity to describe what they see as challenges and opportunities along North Main Street.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe see this as a multi-year effort involving numerous community partners on a wide range of big projects and small projects,\u201d said Peter Lombardi<\/strong>, JRC\u2019s Senior Planning Consultant. \u201cParticipation by residents, property owners, businesses, and other institutions along North Main Street, as well as the broader community, will determine the success of the project.\u201d<\/p>\n

The plan for North Main Street is being funded by grants from the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation<\/strong>, the Ralph C. Sheldon Foundation<\/strong>, Northwest Savings Bank<\/strong>, and the Chautauqua County Housing and Neighborhood Revitalization Trust Fund<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
