Canfield Vision Plan

September 27 & 28, 2004 -- Canfield Town Meetings

Local residents share their ideas for their community's future

Canfield residents had their first opportunities to voice their opinions and concerns about their community's future in two town meetings held on Monday September 27th and Tuesday September 28th at McMahon Hall.

In an amazing display of community pride and involvement, more than 200 residents showed up for the first meeting on Monday.  Another 150 residents came to the second meeting the following day.

In the two meetings, Dr. James Segedy and fourth year students from Ball State University facilitated a series of discussions about the City of Canfield.  The discussion was very productive, and every citizen present had chances to get their voice heard.  Though opinions varied greatly, several key issues included the construction of a new community center, improvements to the Canfield library and post office, traffic through the downtown area, diversifying the local tax base, and the importance of the village green.
