Summary
The Stark County Regional Planning Commission is soliciting letters of interest for the STA-Lake Township Economic Development Study, a comprehensive economic development and active transportation study for Lake Township and the Village of Hartville. The study will evaluate land use, transportation, and economic conditions to develop a coordinated strategy for business growth, improved connectivity (sidewalks, shared-use paths, bicycle connections), and a roadmap for targeted investment to support walkable commercial areas. The period of performance is expected to be about 12 months from authorization (authorization expected by September 2026).
