One man's mission to revitalize small-town America

One man's mission to revitalize small-town America"The city did not need a short-term, band-aid solution list or lackluster plan," says Daniel Stevenson, who previously served as Biddeford's economic development director. Community leaders decided to partner with the Orton Family Foundation, a nonprofit based in Vermont whose aim is to help towns and small cities become healthier and more economically vibrant. With some 35 neighborhood meetings and the participation of hundreds of residents, Biddeford opted to buy out the waste incinerator and move forward with other plans that ultimately created a wave of development and revitalization.
