Thank you for contacting the Town of Enfield. To date we have received no plans for the reuse of this former restaurant. The building is owned by Equity One, which also owns the Brookside Plaza. Perhaps you could inquire with the owner.

it would be nice to see the TOWN OF ENFIELD deal with the massive amounts of abandonment and over use of parking lots around here it makes our town look unappealing. Including our most historic T-Ville section. replace cement with grass or pavers or find out why we lose more buisness than we can bring in? Like our empty mall.. so sad

Seen the economy lately? This isn't an Enfield problem it's a national problem.

Making such improvements as removing pavement and installing pavers requires funds. If these are projects you are interested in please contact your District Town Councilor or make a statement at a Town Council meeting. Funds for such infrastructure improvements have been cut from the Town budget and State and Federal grants are in short supply at this time.

The Town doesn't have much say to how a parking lot installed decades ago is utilized. The size and placement is all dictated when a developer obtains a zoning & building permit. However I am curious about your sidewalk idea in the village district.

Enfield has been making substantial infrastructure commitments both in tax money, and borrowing for roads over the last 20 years and the needs have mounted quicker than the available post of capital...

Sidewalks have been part of many of these projects... In Thompsonville, though, there is also potential for zoning regulation reform going on too... Streetscape improvement plans or the potential to examine sidewalk widths, etc are the types of things that will result..

Enfield - comparatively speaking, is emerging from the recession in fairly decent shape from a vacancy rate, building activity, and job-growth perspective.

Growing a business climate favorable to small-scale retail involves much more than good looking sidewalks-- but the business "environment" does play a role....

Email me if you'd like to discuss other economic development activities the TOE has underway, or feel free to stop by the Revitalization Strategy Committee meeting Thursday evening at 7 PM at Town Hall. (You may also be interested in this site: www.ctmainstreet.org Great discussions on what works and how to get it done. )
