3.       Preserve and enhance the historic downtown features.

4.       Establish downtown as a destination for parks, recreation, entertainment, retail and sports.

5.       Establish a beautification program for vacant, underutilized or deteriorated lots and structures.

6.       Enhance accessibility to and throughout the downtown.

7.       Explore sustainable and "green" standards for new development.
