Update to community meetings

After attending the last two community meetings at the Boulevard Park Library~it seems the city planners want people to know, this will happen. The comprehensive plan no one voted for WILL be changing our neighborhood, it will be Industrial designation, but they’d like to know WHAT kind of maybe Light Industrial businesses we’d like/not like to see happen there. They emphasize that the city must meet their hypothetical job opportunities quota, and it must be on our neighborhood it happens. Many concerns and questions were raised that they don’t have answers to yet, including this feels like the city punching down on a low-economic working family neighborhood because they can. The city planners are terrible at answering simple questions with simple answers. However, the Mayor did listen and said she wants to hear concerns, questions and feedback from people living here and around this neighborhood. I’ll take her at her word. I’ll be updating dates for public input and continue to door knock to let people know who might not have the means or time to already. Something the city has failed to do this far. I still think our voices and presence matters.
