Under the guidance of a citizen/city generated Comprehensive Plan, Mt. Vernon has made great strides in infrastructure improvements: roads, water and sewer lines, growth in economic development: new retail, expansion/renovation of existing businesses, the attraction of new businesses, growth in recreational facilities and community events and the revitalization of our historic downtown area.
