Envision Bourbon County

 

August 29, 2017

 

Thank you to all those who attended the “Envision Paris” sessions at the Paris-Bourbon County Library! The input of over 120 attendees will help shape a better Bourbon County. And yesterday was only the first of many opportunities!

Here are some photos that highlight our day with the community and our special visitors from the University of Cincinnati. If you were unable to attend, but would like to participate in future planning initiatives, please email alacy@paris.ky.gov.

 

Professors of from the University of Cincinnati introduced themselves to our Community and gave a summary of the community development project that 30 Master of urban planning, landscape architecture, and historic preservation students will focus on this fall.

 

Attendees posted their responses to the questions “What makes Bourbon County great?” and “What challenges does Bourbon County face?”

 

The 100 + workshop attendees split up into smaller groups to discuss topics such as the economy, housing, historic preservation, transportation, green infrastructure, and natural and recreational amenities.

 

Students enjoyed a delicious lunch provided by Rooster Brew with the support of Woodford Hill Thompson, Traditional Bank, Gwen Dever, Mike Kendall, Deborah Lyle Poynter, and Mark Gallman.

 

University of Cincinnati students received a tour of a recently renovated building on Main Street.

On April 24th, over 30 community members participated in an “on the table” meeting to discuss how we can publicly celebrate Garrett Morgan, the world renowned inventor who grew up in Claysville, right here in Paris.  Several ideas were shared!  This Summer, we will take some of these ideas and share the community’s artistic vision at a Design Workshop.  Stay tuned for a Summer Design Workshop date!
