Should Manhattan be called a university town or a town with a university? Manhattan city commissioners on Friday discussed where “university” should go in the city’s vision statement. Here’s the current statement: “A thriving, high-quality university community that offers a variety of opportunities to support the well-being of its people while capitalizing on its small-town feel.” Commissioners discussed possible definitions and descriptions of the city’s vision with consulting firm Planning NEXT, which is helping the Manhattan city government shape priorities. The commission reviewed the CrossroadsMHK strategic plan during a Friday retreat at the new Anthony Recreation Center.
