The Hamilton Community Development Coalition, NFP also known locally as the HCDC, is a non-profit group that was formed by dedicated citizens in an effort to improve the City of Hamilton. 

Our mission:

The Community Development Coalition promotes the City of Hamilton as a desirable, growing community that is planning for the future.  Coalition groups work toward the building of community leadership, spirit, business opportunities, and improving the desirability of the Hamilton community.  Developing and sustaining positive community and economic growth are desired outcomes.

Although we are a relatively new group, formed in 2001, we have set both short term and long term goals for the organization.  We have regular monthly meetings at the Hamilton City Hall on the second Tuesday of every month at 7:00 PM. 

Anyone interested in getting involved is welcome to come to any meeting.  We have an open membership with no dues.

Some of our accomplishments include the creation of a visitor information center, landscaping around the welcome signs, development of a community brochure, and general downtown beautification.  Our current projects include developing the Darrin Miller Toddler Park, creating a scenic overlook at Nauvoo Junction, developing a master plan for the Dyke Road area, and implementing the downtown banner program just to name a few!

Another project which has received a great deal of attention recently involves the restoration of the Safford Auditorium.
