Working Together

An ad-hoc meeting was held last night (January 4) to exchange ideas on preserving the local history of the town. A “brainstorming” approach was used to attempt to recount all the good things that have happened in the past year in town, and to identify the most significant obstacles to improving the town along with possible solutions to these obstacles.

The meeting was considered a landmark gathering because those present at the meeting last night represented all of the other civic groups in the town, including the Merchant Association, Commissioner’s (town) Council, Historic Metamora Inc., Metamora Economic Development Corp (MEDC), Duck Creek Property Owners Association, and the Lion’s Club.

Several people volunteered to do some research on specific areas identified and report back to the group at a follow-up meeting scheduled next month.
