Powelton Village Stakeholder's Meeting
On a warm Tuesday evening (April 28), planning consultants and the steering committee met with local stakeholders at the Community Education Center on Lancaster Avenue to discuss the plan. Attendees included local business owners and non-profit directors, along with Drexel representatives and the planning commission. The consultants briefed everyone on what they had learned so far, focusing on homeownership/rentals, small business recruitment and quality of life issues like schools and pedestrian mobility. After a brief "State of the Village" report, attendees broke into small groups to discuss what can be done about the various concerns.
