Corridor Plan Project
The Lycoming County Brownfield Inventory & Assessment Project commenced in June 2007 as an economic development initiative authorized by the Lycoming County Commissioners with included collaboration with the business community, elected officials, agencies, and citizens of Lycoming County. This project was directed by staff from the Lycoming County Planning & Community Development Department, Williamsport/Lycoming Chamber of Commerce, and Industrial Properties Corporation with technical support supplied by the consulting team of MACTEC and Larson Design Group.
Through community involvement, a comprehensive list of over 80 brownfield sites has been developed, with special interest with those sites located in the desinated growth corridors of Lycoming County. The outcome of this project identified and evaluated Brownfield opportunities in four municipal clusters around the County. Through that two corridors were identified as having an extremely high redevelopment potential. Two separate Corridor Plans will be developed, one for each of the following locations: the City of Williamsport and the Borough of Montgomery.
Utilization of a three-step approach involving Feasibility, Visioning, and Implementation, the Corridor Plans will provide a comprehensive understanding of the areas and allow for community input to be integrated into realistic, implementable plans to provide a legacy for the future, transcening administrations.
