Danvers Community Workshop Focusing on Downtown Corridor
Posted on November 18th at 8:39pm.
On November 26th, the Danvers Planning Board will be holding a community workshop to receive public comment on the Downtown Corridor re-zoning initiative.
Draft zoning and design guidelines have been prepared by Brovitz Community Planning & Design. The rezoning initiative will focus on allowing a mixture of land uses to create a more vibrant, walkable, and livable downtown. Guidelines will also focus creating design standards to address facades, building treatments, and signage inside the Downtown Corridor.
The National Association of REALTORS® has championed the use of Smart Growth techniques as a proven, favored approach to development. That includes making downtowns walkable and adopting mixed zoning to accommodate both residential and commercial in the same neighborhood.
The workshop will take place at the Danvers Town Hall in the Toomey Room at 7pm.
