The Village Council of the Village of Quincy approved and adopted the original Downtown Development and Tax Increment Financing Plan in 1992. A number of the projects initially proposed have been accomplished, but many still remain. The goal and objective in the plan are to be achieved by undertaking projects which will enhance the downtown as well as visually and physically connecting the development areas. These projects are intended to improve parking areas and provide for pedestrian connection between the parking areas and retail businesses. Focal points and public areas will be identified under this plan and other physical improvements will be undertaken which will create a more advantageous and attractive environment.
