Downtown Master Plan Draft

About the Plan

The City of Celina’s biggest physical asset, as identified by the community, is its downtown and square area. To establish the vision of what Downtown should look like and how it should evolve, the Downtown Master Plan’s major goal is to establish that vision through illustrative concepts and supporting text and recommendations. The Plan will address the existing conditions as well as future opportunities and strategies, and it will detail physical aspects of development and the economic impacts that it could bring.

We want to make Downtown a branded destination in #CelinaTX where residents and businesses want to #StartStayGrow!

The Stakeholder Workshop allowed some individuals directly affected by the Downtown to engage and communicate with the Downtown Master Plan Team. The workshop consisted of discussing the pros and cons of the area and working as a group to identify how Downtown can be revitalized and structured for success in the future. Those in attendance included the Main Street Advisory Board, the Historic Preservation Committee, and others closely related to the area (ex. Property Owners).  This was an initial meeting, and it was not the only engagement scheduled for the Plan as there are many stakeholders beyond this initial group. SUMMARY HERE
