As it has been a few years since the last round of community outreach, we encourage you to provide your input on this project in the comment box below:
Due to current safer at home orders, we are unable to host a targeted discussion with the residents who live in and around the project area. In order to most equally collect input and ideas from the residents in the N. Hill Avenue neighborhood, input will be solicited via the below comment box and identified to City staff by the name and address of the commenter. Names and addresses will not be published in future outreach meetings but will be required for input to be considered representative of a resident that would most be affected by this effort.
