Streetscape
ideas submitted to
DDA Board
Updates
from Janet Hartman

It
is an exciting
time for the Downtown
Development Authority
of Blairsville.
There is renewed
activity on the
square, buildings
are getting facelifts,
flowers have been
planted, and
benches are a
welcome addition
for shoppers and
downtown visitors.
Recently
the DDA submitted
a Transportation Enhancement
Grant application
to the Georgia Department
of Transportation
for a streetscape
for the downtown square.
If approved, this
grant will enable
us to improve pedestrian
safety on the square
by defining the walkways,
crosswalks, parking
and traffic lanes.
(See larger example
of conceptual
drawing.)
