Help Develop the Downtown Vineland of the Future!

Main Street Vineland is requesting your participation in a very important survey that will help develop the Downtown Vineland—The Ave—of the future.
This online survey, developed by Main Street New Jersey, is currently being used in many
communities throughout the state. Several questions are asked in this short survey about your
current impressions of our downtown, shopping habits, choices for future businesses, and the
vision for the future of our downtown.
People can take the survey by going to www.theave.biz/survey .The deadline for taking the survey is Tuesday, October 15, at 5 p.m.,
This will lead up to a two-day visit to downtown Vineland by Main Street New Jersey on October
16-17 for a “Transformation Strategy Development Technical Visit” involving Main Street New
Jersey, as well as City, Main Street Vineland, business, and community leaders, and Vineland
residents.
The October visit will include analyzation and application of the survey results, as well as helping
to develop community-informed and market-driven strategies to direct and strengthen downtown
revitalization efforts.

Participation will include Main Street New Jersey leadership, Main Street Vineland leadership, Board members and staff, City leadership and stakeholders, business and property owners, and the community at large.
From the visit, strategies and activities will be developed from the assembled data to help steer revitalization efforts for the next three to five years.

“A downtown—like The Ave—is a constant work in progress. It is dynamic and always needs to
be looked at with relation to the tastes, demographics, economic conditions, and shopping and
business habits of the times,” said Main Street Vineland Executive Director Russell Swanson.
“The survey and the subsequent two-day technical visit will help to adapt what was learned to our
downtown’s needs and will move the process forward to chart a course of further progress with
goals and objectives for The Ave.
