Vision Statement

The Village developed a Vision Statement that was included in the NYF Application to the State. The Vision statement was presented to the public at the first Public Meeting, and feedback requested. Attendees indicated consensus on the draft Vision Statement, presented below.

“The Village of Dolgeville strives to be a safe, inclusive community that draws on its unique features as a gateway to the Adirondacks and its central location to the East Canada Creek, supporting relaxation, tourism, and an overall healthy lifestyle. Building upon its storied history, the Village’s vision is to restore its economic, commercial, cultural and artist vibrancy, and its historic Main Street district, leading the Village into a prosperous, sustainable future.”
