Mayor's Welcome
On behalf of the Grandville City Council and our staff, let me
extend a warm welcome to each of you. All of us are very proud of
our city, which has experienced phenomenal growth during the past
two decades. We have shared in the excitement and prosperity of the
Western Michigan region.
Grandville is a city of some 17,000 people, nestled along the
shores of the Grand River. In addition to our fine residential
areas, we have witnessed substantial commercial and industrial
growth. These are certainly positive indications that Grandville is
an excellent place to live, work and play.
Grandville has been known as “the city of churches and parks.” As
you drive our streets, you will find them graced by many beautiful
churches, which play an integral part in our lifestyle. In
addition, the foresight of our City Council has provided for an
excellent park system, which provides recreation and leisure time
for all of our citizens.
During the past ten years we witnessed substantial growth in the
south portion of our city, as we welcomed the RiverTown Crossings
Mall. The addition of the mall certainly generated a good deal of
commercial development and we certainly have welcomed all of these
new businesses to our community.
While a tremendous amount of development took place in the south
portion of our City, our downtown has remained viable. Grandville
continues to provide a “small town” atmosphere, which is so
important to all of us. We are extremely pleased by the role played
by many volunteers as they are an integral part of our Michigan Week
Activities, Memorial Day Service, Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony,
and certainly our Fourth of July Celebration.
Grandville is a very vibrant and prosperous community. If you are
passing through, we are glad you stopped. If you decide to stay,
WELCOME!
Yours truly,
James R. Buck
Mayor
