Specifications include, but are not limited to: The City of Barre seeks the services of a planning consultant or team to review and update the North Main to Summer Street Master Plan finalized in March of 2012. The North Main to Summer Street area encompasses three blocks in the heart of our historic downtown district. Now that the long-planned Main Street reconstruction project is done ("Big Dig"), the City Place building constructed, the Downstreet Housing offices and apartments building complete, and the Keith Avenue Parking lot reconstructed, the plan's overall vision and guidance for the area should be revisited. Now that at least 10 years has elapsed since the plan's inception and the aforementioned projects completed, those improvements not completed may not meet today's vision. With the ability to hire a consultant to assist the City with revisiting the goals and aspirations, along with a public process, determine a new future for further revitalization. the outcome will be a revised Master Plan for this area, so that the City can plan for further outcomes to enrich our downtown.
