Posted

With the final open house to gather public input now completed, the City of Chehalis, in partnership with Experience Chehalis, has launched a third online survey to gather more input as they finalize proposed infrastructure improvement projects in the downtown area for the ongoing Imagine Downtown Chehalis project, according to a city news release.

Imagine Downtown Chehalis is a multi-year downtown rejuvenation and revitalization project aimed at improving the downtown area while preserving the history of Chehalis.

It was set in motion earlier in summer 2024 when the Chehalis City Council approved a contract with HBB Landscape Architecture of Seattle to act as the project consultant. The specific area Imagine Downtown Chehalis covers includes Market Boulevard, Washington and Pacific avenues and Boistfort Street.



“Proposed upgrades include improved sidewalks, optimized traffic flow, enhanced lighting, and better roadways, all designed to create a safer, more inviting streetscape that fosters community connection and supports economic growth,” the release stated.

Those who visit, shop and dine in the downtown area, along with property owners, business owners and residents, are invited to take the survey, which is available online at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/CHRP

The survey will remain available online until Feb. 23. To learn more about Imagine Downtown Chehalis, visit Experience Chehalis’ website at https://imagine.experiencechehalis.com/
