What This Program Will Achieve
The PCTGP initiative is designed to bring lasting benefits to Ronan and its surrounding communities by focusing on four key goals:
Turning Ronan into a Destination
We’re shifting the narrative from "passing through" to "staying and exploring." Visitors will discover local businesses, scenic trails, and cultural experiences that make Ronan a place worth stopping for.
Downtown Revitalization & Community Growth
● Improved wayfinding and signage to guide visitors.
● Sustainable public spaces, walking & biking trails.
● Enhanced streetscapes, parks, and fairgrounds
Sustainable Tourism Infrastructure
● Expanded bike-friendly routes and pedestrian pathways
● Brownfield redevelopment for a cleaner, greener Ronan
● Strategic investments to support year-round tourism
Economic Growth & Regional Collaboration
● Strengthening partnerships with local businesses, the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes (CSKT), and community leaders
● Increasing visitor spending, job opportunities, and business growth
● Developing a long-term tourism model that benefits everyone
