Zoning Meeting May 13th at 6:00 PM
Providence City Offices
Why?
Our plan to build a boutique down town started with our own personal desire to have a pedestrian friendly commercial destination in our community. A destination that is unique to Providence with local businesses that engage the public and enhance the community. A place that is easy and convenient to meet up with friends or have spontaneous community interactions. We have seen other cities and towns revitalizing their downtowns and it has always felt like Providence missed out on having the classic main street from history and hallmark movies. That is what we want to create!
Who?
We are currently engaging with multiple local entrepreneurs from a range of specialties! These include a local baker, cafe owner, florist, candy shop merchant, and boutique owner. Providence Town Square includes 6 flexible business spaces. We plan to fill these with local businesses that engage with the community. The project will also provide 6 second level unique 2 bed 2 bath apartments, each with its own features and historic finishes to make it special.
What?
Our goal is to make people unfamiliar with the properties history assume the buildings were built around the same time as the Old Rock Church. Sections of the building will be inspired by historic main street buildings around this area. We plan to use architectural details and materials from the existing home on sections of the building to pay tribute to the history of the property and community.
Where?
So much of Cache Valley has become uncomfortable to access by foot or bicycle. The location of Providence Town Square balances automobile traffic with pedestrian comfort so it is still accessible to all but doesn’t feel like you are sitting next to a highway or in a large parking lot.
How?
In order to build a boutique downtown, we need mixed use zoning. This is the zoning that Providence City’s future land use section of the general plan calls for in this area. While development is planned for in this area, we want to make sure what is build is truly special!
