(Hatboro, PA) Hatboro Borough Council announces the return of Stephen Barth, formerly Hatboro’s Main Street Manager and president of Barth Consulting Group (BCG), an economic development & revitalization consulting firm to Hatboro in 2026. Barth will assist the community and Hatboro businesses to continue to thrive and grow. Barth had worked for Main Street Hatboro from 2010 through 2018.

“Hatboro has experienced substantial growth since 2018 with many new businesses and land development projects completed or soon to be completed,” remarked Council President Nicole Reichner. “As Main Street evolves and grows the Hatboro Borough Council is investing back into and supporting the community and its businesses by helping to continue to shape our vibrant, walkable downtown.”

Investment in downtown revitalization benefits the entire community by increasing property values, creating new jobs and businesses and improving the quality of life for all residents.

“Hatboro is uniquely positioned to capitalize on its continuing growth and the influx of new investment downtown,” commented Barth. “As the community continues to expand this is an exciting opportunity for Hatboro to sculpt its future, support its businesses, attract new ones and capitalize upon its successes.”

Over the next year Barth Consulting Group will work closely with Hatboro businesses and promote the community by courting and accelerating new investment.
