Waynesboro Vision Statement

 
 


Located in south central Pennsylvania, downtown Waynesboro shall be known as an attractive and vibrant commercial district that meets the needs of its nearby residents and customers and by extension, regional tourists through the maintenance of a high quality-of-life and the enhancements of its tourist-related hospitality services.

Waynesboro envisions the realization of this future by:

  • Capitalizing on its location along the Pennsylvania-Maryland border and its proximity to the growing residential needs of the Washington, D.C. region; and by
  • Taking advantage of regional heritage tourism and outdoor recreation assets.

These market realities will enable downtown Waynesboro to:

  1. Serve as the commercial and civic center for a growing residential market. This shall be accomplished by enhancing the existing assets, and developing new assets that will define Waynesboro as a regional quality-of-life hub for south-central Pennsylvania.
  2. Build upon the strengths of this quality-of-life hub in order to enhance the central business district's image as a hospitality venue for the region's many heritage tourism and outdoor recreation tourists.

This vision shall be obtained through a cooperative partnership of residents, local organizations and borough government that will ensure a commitment to this vision and the effective use of resources in its attainment.

Note: Underlined statements are the "Key Vision Concepts" that will need to be operationalized in the development of the Five Year Action-Strategy.
