Like dogs? Support the new Dog Park here. Heartworks: Working toward a Collaborative Downtown Master plan Our HeartWorks project is really taking off! We are reaching out to ALL of Biddeford to find out what makes up the heart and soul of downtown Biddeford, in a grand effort to create a community-driven Master Plan for the Downtown District. You have seen the Heart Spots signs around town, and hopefully you have called in to tell a story. And please continue to do so, because the more input, the better the future Biddeford will be! WANNA HELP?? We seek committee members for the Heartworks Downtown Master Plan committee. These people will help guide the grassroots process of public input for a Downtown Master Plan to be completed by the end of 2010. The project is funded by the $100K master planning grant awarded to the Heart of Biddeford last year by the Orton Family Foundation. If interested, email weyand.rachael@gmail.com. For a description of the "job", click here! Can't help, but want to follow the project? Check out our blog by clicking the Heart Works link on the round menu to the left.
