Neillsville Improvement Corporation Hears First Impressions Report
Wednesday, November 15th, 2017 -- 9:05 AM
-The Neillsville Improvement Corporation heard the report from the First Impressions program that was done in the City of Neillsville.Back in July, several community members from Neillsville went to the City of Fennimore, which is roughly the same size of Neillsville, and did a “First Impressions” of their community. Melissa Kono, the CNRED Agent for Clark County, put a report together offering their thoughts and opinions about the community. In return, community members from Fennimore came to Neillsville to do a First Impressions of the community. The response was mostly positive, with just a few issues brought up in regards to improvement. They felt there was adequate signage around the city and they loved the various banners, flower/plants and kiosks. They were also very impressed with The Highground, but believe there should be more of a connection with the City of Neillsville and The Highground.
They also said the town was clean, the people were friendly and helpful and there was a very quaint and inviting atmosphere. However, they did say that the entire town could use a fresh coat of paint and they felt some areas of town felt “unfinished.” They got the impression that certain projects were started, but then people just walked away from them.
