Background
A well-functioning and attractive center is a crucial link for Wassenaar society. Partly as a result of changing consumer behavior due to internet purchases, retail is under pressure. The Strengthening Village Center project includes a redevelopment plan that will revitalize our village center. The revitalization will create a logical and recognizable public space with quality and a unified appearance, inviting visitors to stay longer in the center. This will not only have a positive effect on the visitor's spending pattern, but also create new private investment and attract entrepreneurs and investors. This gives a boost to the business climate and prevents vacancy.
Since 2016, the municipality has been working together with center management, entrepreneurs and property owners to strengthen the center. The intensive process of co-creation with residents, (catering) entrepreneurs, shopkeepers and property owners has led to a widely supported redevelopment plan.
