Can't Make It?

Materials from the meeting, including the slides and a recording of the presentation will be posted to the project webpage following the meeting, typically within a week. We also have two in-person open house events planned. Information shared at these open houses will include only what is discussed at the May 31 meeting: no new information will be shared. Instead, community members will be able to drop by in-person to talk to city staff, ask questions, and provide feedback. You may at anytime also submit feedback through the project's online feedback form.

In-person Open Houses:

  • Tuesday, June 6 at the Pisani Center from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.
