As we start the new year, the City of Dunedin is considering some new development projects that could impact the look and feel of Main Street.
For many, the New Year brings new goals, hope, and optimism… and for the City of Dunedin, it could be new development.
This year, several new projects are being considered. One project could include a new boutique hotel with business space near Main Street and Douglas Avenue.
Another project could bring affordable housing to the area.
“I think if they have more people within the community, we might be able to make our own businesses grow, and other businesses grow,” said Dakota Graff, who works at Bark Avenue in Dunedin.
Many people, like Graff, think the projects could be beneficial.
“We would be able to get more customers in, and then we will have more regulars and customers, so I think that would improve our business greatly,” said Graff.
Erik Feus owns a scent-making company called Sea Love Dunedin and said more space for local businesses is a good idea.
