Premiminary Design Concepts

Preliminary Design Alternatives Suggested

The Town’s consultant, the Cecil Group, met with the Village Committees in mid June to present some design ideas. The Cecil Group had reviewed the information that they received through Public Workshops, meetings with the Village Overlay Committee, discussions with residents and business people in each village, and the results submitted from over 50 questionnaires.

The Cecil Group presented three exploratory alternative concepts for each of the three villages (a total of nine concepts). The spirit of these concepts was simply to explore a number of actions that might be good ideas. Each alternative is an embryonic design concept which combines some ideas that seem to fit well together.  These concepts are simply the very beginning of the design process. Some ideas are only practical for one design alternative, and might conflict with ideas in a different alternative concept. Ultimately, some ideas might be selected and combined from the three different Alternatives. Click on the items below to see the details.
