CITY FEATURES
Downtown Improvments
In 2014, the Town completed a $1.4 million Main Street improvement project, including sidewalk widening, landscaping, street furniture and street lighting. These improvements will highlight the existing businesses in the Downtown core, and attract new businesses to invest in our town, by reducing the initial costs of development.
Business in Silt
Not only does the Town of Silt have a robust workforce, but the citizens’ values greatly support the concept of living, shopping and working locally. The Town of Silt is prepared to offer sales tax incentives or other tax increment financing to entice commercial growth within town limits. The Silt Urban Renewal Authority is poised to present infrastructure cost reductions to commercial developers.
Recreation
By spring of 2015, the Camp Colorado River Recreational Vehicle Park will open to 67 spaces and a beautiful lodge on the edge of the Colorado River. The Town will embark on a whitewater park feasibility study to capitalize on the immense potential the river has to offer. The Town is also extremely committed to walkability, boasting over four miles of trails.
