\"10470209_757228787691337_6464693375149595306_n\"The Fillmore Corridor Neighborhood Coalition (FCNC), through its Fillmore Corridor\u00a0Main Street Steering Committee, is happy to attach the Community Assessment Report which was\u00a0completed after a visit by commercial revitalization consultants Teresa Lynch and Matt Wagner. The\u00a0Community Assessment Visit and the Report were funded through a National Association of Realtors\u2019\u00a0Smart Growth Grant provided to the Buffalo-Niagara Association of Realtors and through a local match\u00a0contributed by Councilman David Franczyk\u2019s office, the MLK CDC, and the FCNC.\u00a0More than 100 stakeholders in Fillmore Corridor\u2019s two commercial districts \u2013 Broadway-Fillmore and\u00a0Martin Luther King \u2013 participated in meetings\/ interview during the visit, providing the consultants with\u00a0their valuable input. You may have been one of those stakeholders and we are very grateful for your\u00a0participation.<\/p>\n

We hope that you enjoy reading the report and would welcome back any comments that you have.\u00a0Many of the stakeholders who were part of the assessment visit also indicated that would be interested\u00a0in volunteering to help with the revitalization of the MLK and Broadway-Fillmore commercial districts.<\/p>\n

We noted that interest and as the steering committee moves forward with fully forming a board for a\u00a0Fillmore Corridor Main Street organization and composing membership for the four-committee\u00a0structure, we will be contacting those of you who participated in the visit sessions to ask if you are\u00a0interested in becoming a board or committee member.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, please contact the individual(s) listed below \u2013 who are members of the Fillmore\u00a0Corridor Main Street Steering Committee \u2013 if you have any questions, if you want more information, or\u00a0if you are ready to jump on board as a volunteer.<\/p>\n
