The Parks & Rec Board will meet tomorrow night (Dec 1st) at 7 in the Community Center. They will discuss what to name the City’s newest park, located at Ridge Road & Cressman Court. Several people from the neighborhood attended the last City Council meeting, asking that it be named in honor of the late Barbara Foss. You can speak during the public comment section of the meeting if you want to weigh in on this issue.
The Planning Commission meets Wednesday night (December 2nd) at 6:30 in City Council Chambers. They will hold two public hearings: one regarding eight new duplexes to be built at 18300 W. 4th Ave., and one to consider a request from the School of Mines to rezone 1523 Illinois Street so they can construct a new building to replace Meyer Hall.
The Public Art Commission will meet Thursday morning (December 3rd) at 9AM in City Council Chambers. Their agenda will be posted on this page when it is available.
City Council meets Thursday night at 6:30 in City Council Chambers. City Staff is requesting that this year’s budget to amended to allow $480K in additional expenditures.
