Hinchman said he will act as moderator for the forum, which will be dedicated to suggestions for capital improvements for the downtown and nothing else.
He said the event will start with suggestions for improvements from the audience. It will continue with a PowerPoint presentation showing how low-cost improvements (signage, vegetation, pedestrian connectors to parking lots, and a small pocket park, for instance) might be achieved. The event will also include a chance for invited elected officials and business leaders to provide their input.
