In this second episode of our Winchester Revitalization series, Mayor Robert Burns shares the vision, passion, and purpose behind creating the Winchester Advisory Committee and what this project means for the people who call the neighborhood home.

Mayor Burns reflects on the importance of preserving Winchester’s legacy, empowering local voices, and building a future that honors those who came before.

In this first installment of a multi-part series, City Manager Mark Watson and Mayor Pro Tem Surluta Anthony share the vision behind the Winchester Revitalization Project, a long-term plan to restore one of Monroe’s most historic neighborhoods through strategic development, infrastructure improvements, and renewed community partnerships.

The discussion traces Winchester’s past and its enduring spirit, explores what revitalization means beyond new construction, and outlines how residents and local leaders are working together to shape a stronger, more connected future for Monroe.
