Curt Lang has spent the past few months making the transition from his seat on the Sycamore City Council to the Mayor's Office...and he says it's given him a new perspective on how well Sycamore is doing.
Curt gave the Rotary Club a photo montage tour of the city's businesses, from east to west, during the August 2nd meeting. He notes the many changes we've seen in just the past few years; a number of downtown businesses have changed hands, but most stores in the business district have tenants and remain open for business.
He says City Manager Brian Gregory has played an important role in Sycamore's business development, directing the design and landscape of the city to give it a consistent feel. And in a time when people are more mobile, and quicker to judge the look of a town...he says he has yet to meet anyone who has expressed a desire to get away from Sycamore.
