Mall Concept Plans At High School Tonight

Trotwood residents are invited to have a first look at the city’s preliminary plans for the former Salem Mall site in the high school auditorium from 5-7pm today.

Nearly a year in the works with an outside consultant and a working group of 13 residents, city officials are now turning to the public for their comments on the draft concepts. The Stonehenge Group will help to explain the proposed road network and mix of commercial, residential and office uses they hope the plan will attract. At the center of their concept is a large greenspace area to host a variety of events from farmer's markets to concerts.

The idea of having a central attraction in the plan has been successful in other cities. By offering more than just retail stores the hope is to create a long term solution in the heart of Trotwood’s Salem Avenue corridor.

Residents will have the opportunity to make suggestions on the conceptual plan. For more information contact the Trotwood city manager’s office at 854-7213.
