Amherst Town Common revitalization project approved
The Town of Amherst will receive up to $827,000 in federal grant assistance for the revitalization of the North Common. The project will transform approximately 1 acre of the Town Common. This effort is the result of years of public input to enhance the area for residents, visitors, and businesses in the area. The work will include many improvements like adding new accessible walkways, central space for small performances, and a plaza in front of the Town Hall.
