LIBERTY TWP. <\/p>\n
A Butler County community is taking measures to ensure its name is front and center when it comes to economic development. <\/p>\n
Liberty Twp. officials recently spent several months working with the US Postal Service to ensure all businesses and residences along Liberty Way and Cincinnati-Dayton Road south of Ohio 129 could use Liberty Township, OH 45069 for their address. <\/p>\n
Previously, those in the townships central business district were required to use West Chester, OH, 45069 for their Liberty Twp. addresses. <\/p>\n
The change applies to approximately 145 parcels and between 50 to 60 businesses, the majority of them on Cincinnati-Dayton Road, but comes two years in advance of the construction of the 1.1-million-square-foot Liberty Center, which is scheduled to open in 2015. <\/p>\n
The opening of the $300 million mixed-used development is expected to drastically increase the amount of businesses in the region. <\/p>\n
While putting a town and ZIP code traditionally is about directing mail to the correct address, to an expanding community like Liberty Twp. its about fostering community engagement and directing commercial growth, according to Caroline McKinney, the townships economic development director. <\/p>\n
Its more than numbers when its where you live or where you work, McKinney said. Its a very personal thing. People want to be proud of where they live and, for a business, its their livelihood a lot of times. <\/p>\n
West Chester Twp.s proximity to Liberty Twp. has the potential to make matters more confusing than any possible mix ups with Hamilton or Middletown. <\/p>\n
West Chester, its just to the south. Its basically across the street, McKinney said. But when you talk about Middletown and Hamilton, those are like a couple of communities away. <\/p>\n
