Hamburg Pennsylvania a
Blueprint Communtiy - What it means?
In Hamburg, the Blueprint team created its vision
by holding public meetings with residents as well as the Borough's Recreation
Board, Blue Mountain Wildlife Inc, and the Northern Berks County Recreation
Commission, among other organizations. In addition, the Blueprint team
sifted through the borough's archives, using goals and strategies from
past plans to incorporate into the new Blueprint Planning Strategy. All
of this has resulted in one comprehensive plan for the Borough of Hamburg
led by the Blueprint team.
Public-Private Collaboration: To increase the likelihood for the successful
implementation of a neighborhood planning initiative, all vested parties
should be apprised of the community's progress during each step. It cannot
be stressed enough how important it is for each Blueprint Community team
to form strong partnerships with its local and state government officials,
as well as funding entities.
In Hamburg, the Blueprint team has been working in conjunction with Hamburg's
Planning Commission to map out a revitalization area, as well as to coordinate
objectives and goals along the Schuylkill River. In addition to leading
the borough-wide initiative, the Blueprint team will act as the lead consultant
for the Planning Commission's river revitalization project. More
