Neighborhood Planning Process

The City will begin Phase 2 of the River Corridor Redevelopment Plan, involving neighborhood planning in Winter 2008. The City is currently shaping the neighborhood planning process based on best practices in other communities. The process may include open houses, neighborhood meetings, a master steering committee and/or focus groups to identify elements of the plan. More information will be available in the coming months.

The City will work with neighborhoods to delineate areas of neighborhood reinvestment in more detail, taking into consideration:

• the unique and specific characteristics of each neighborhood;
• making neighborhoods more sustainable;
• mixed income and multi-generational; and,
• better and stronger than before.
