ELOY — The city recently hosted a community visioning event to get public input for ideas of what should become of Eloy’s Main Street and downtown area.
The event Aug. 12 was held by the city of Eloy as well as Local First Arizona, a nonprofit organization that helps cities with community and economic development throughout Arizona.
Kimber Lanning, CEO at Local First Arizona, discussed how she can help Eloy establish its vision for the city.
“We are really trying to assist the leadership at this city to make critical decisions on how to grow Main Street and how to get people back to Main Street,” Lanning said. “In order to do that, you have to first hear from the community. What do they want? What do they want to see? All of those questions, so we can help shape a vision.”
