Important Meetings

    A revised downtown plan approved by the Plan Commission is now under review by the
    Planning and Development (P&D) Committee.  Public comment was taken at meetings
    held on November 24, 2008; November 25, 2008; and December 4, 2008.  P&D will
    continue deliberation at a special P&D meeting to be held on Friday, January 9, 2009 at
    6:00pm at the Civic Center.

    A copy of the Plan Commission-approved revised Plan can be found here.

    Further deliberation on the project by the Planning & Development (P&D) Committee has
    been tabled until after the Downtown Plan has been approved by the City Council.  
    Therefore, time on the agenda for the 708 Church project has not yet been scheduled.  
    See Proposed Draft Downtown Plan above for more info.

    Current status can be found here.
