Cedar Valley Alliance Receives "Great Places" Memorandum of Understanding
Posted 22 February 2010
Iowa Great Places is an initiative of the Iowa Department of Cultural Affairs that combines state resources and local assets to help communities cultivate the unique qualities that make them special. The Memorandums of Understanding signed today bring the state into partnership with each of the following communities: Greater Cedar Valley Alliance, Iowa City/Coralville/North Liberty, Marion, Tama County, Turkey River Corridor, and Villages of Van Buren County.

The program asks Iowans to develop proposals that address seven unique and authentic dimensions that make places special: engaging experiences; rich, diverse populations and cultures; a vital, creative economy; clean and accessible natural and built environments; well-designed infrastructure; a shared attitude of optimism that welcomes new ideas; and based on a diverse and inclusive cultural mosaic.

The Greater Cedar Valley Alliance consists of Cedar Falls, Evansdale and Waterloo. Its proposal focuses on strengthening the Cedar Valley community’s relationship with the Cedar River; increasing the public’s use and enjoyment of the Cedar River and its watershed; and enhancing its environmental health, cultural heritage, recreational features and economic opportunities.

The goal of Independence 24/7 is to provide
the most up to date information possible!
