Economic Growth

By Josh Maxwell

1. Create new Jobs
2. Attract new Businesses
3. Invest in Infrastructure

Mayor Maxwell will aggressively fight for new businesses and economic growth for our district. We need to use every tool at our disposal, from working directly with existing small businesses to help them grow and employ more people to using Keystone Opportunity Zones to give new businesses incentive to locate here.

Lastly, we need to ensure that our workers are well paid and have good benefits. We need to ensure everyone has access to healthcare, and we need to raise the minimum wage.

What Josh Maxwell has done already:

During his term as Mayor, he restarted the Main Street Association, which aims to develop and revitalize downtown Downingtown. By collaborating with local business owners and developers, several new restaurants, like Stella Rossa, Station Taproom, and Avalon Pasta Bistro, are happy to call our district home. This success is the prime example of what happens when economic opportunities arise when all stake holders come together. Mayor Maxwell is excited to be overseeing the development of Downingtown's brand new train station. The plans for the new, centrally located station were announced last summer, and construction is expected to begin next year.
