Community feedback is crucial in shaping the Master Plan, which will establish a framework for how the city’s Western Gateway property can serve community needs for generations to come. There will be multiple opportunities for public engagement and feedback during this year-long process, such as surveys, in-person workshops, and public meetings.
Community Amenity Survey
Thank you for taking the Community Amenity Survey. This survey focuses on prioritizing community amenities and facilities recommended during the October public workshops, the November survey and other feedback. There is consensus about including natural open space and multi-family housing at the Western Gateway, yet there are so many great ideas for community amenities that there is not enough space for everything. Help us narrow down the list of potential community amenities!
