The Hancock Economic & Community
Development Plan
The Hancock Village Board approved the newly
completed Economic Development and Revitalization Plan at a special
Village Board meeting on December 30, 2009.
The Plan was developed by community development expert, Alan Sorensen of Planit
Main Street, Inc., who had been hired by the Village of Hancock and the Hancock
Partners to produce the plan. Sorensen emphasized that formal adoption of the
plan would enable the Village to qualify for grants.
Some have called the plan “a guide for the future”. The plan would help focus
development into designs approved by the Village.
The Hancock Partners endorse The Hancock
Economic & Community Development Plan. It is vital for the economic growth and
well being of the greater Hancock area.
We invite you to view the entire "Plan" and
offer any comments you might have.
