VISION:
“By 2034, Heuvelton aims to be a vibrant community featuring small businesses and activities for adults, children, and families. Key spaces such as the boat launch and Pickens Hall will serve as focal points for residents of all ages. Continued robust access to municipal services-including the public library, fire department, and post office - will remain a priority. Local childcare and medical centers will operate successfully, and the downtown area will evolve into a cultural center marked by new growth and development. Vacant properties will be repurposed to benefit the broader community and provide a diverse range of services.
Heuvelton envisions becoming a recreational destination, with enhancements including a new park and sports fields at the boat launch, increased engagement along the Oswegatchie River, and expanded trails within and surrounding the Village. Efforts to improve river water quality and reduce invasive species will unlock new recreational opportunities. Heuvelton Central School will continue to offer high- quality education and extracurricular programs, anticipate higher enrollment, and secure increased funding. The Village is committed to maintaining its small-town values while embracing cultural trends, aspiring to become a premier destination within the County."
GOALS:
The Local Planning Committee will develop goals for downtown Heuvelton during this planning process. The goals will be published here after LPC Meeting #2.
