Short Description of Activity

The city has defined another corridor committee, months ago, and some who knew about the old creekside neighborhood project years ago, had to emphatically suggest some of those people were on this new corridor committee. This was a flowing presentation and time to talk, wander, look at possible plans to “improve” with hotels, walkways, food courts, pickleball, splash pads, gym equipment, and you name it, along the citys natural river corridor. Questions were asked and tiny notes written and stuck on maps with areas of concern.

Reflection/Evaluation

Must stay on top of…as the major part of this has gotten taken over by a hotel city council voted on quickly not long ago. Changing the creek flow (when it does flow) could be good, could be detrimental…
adding commerce???
