GREENFIELD – Provide input in the quality of Hancock County’s communities through upcoming events.

The Community Foundation of Hancock County and the Hancock Economic Development Council have partnered with HWC Engineering to develop a Quality of Place Plan. “Quality of place” refers to the elements of the community that make it feel like home, such as mom-and-pop restaurants, multi-use trails and public art. The plan will serve as a roadmap for improving the quality of place across the county.

Open houses are coming up at 6 p.m. Sept. 24 at the Thrive Center, 971 W. U.S. 40, Greenfield; and at 6 p.m. Oct. 9 at Mt. Vernon Alumni Center, 1806 W. Ind. 234, Fortville. Participants may review the recommendations, ask questions and share thoughts.
