Reminder: Meeting Tonight
Jobs & Housing, July 22
The next Ford Site community meeting will take place tonight at Gloria
Dei Lutheran Church, from 7 - 8:30 p.m. Learn about and provide input on
how the future site can incorporate a range of employers, retail, and
services and provide a variety of housing that expands options in the
community and the city.
The meeting begins at 7 p.m. with a 30-minute introduction on the topic,
followed by 60 minutes for attendee input on specific sub-topics.
Gloria Dei Lutheran Church is located on Snelling Avenue South and
Highland Parkway.
This is the last of several topic meetings on the Ford site
redevelopment that have occurred this spring and summer. Future public
meetings will be planned for this fall regarding environmental
information and a proposed zoning and public realm plan to guide
redevelopment.
