Envision Neighborhoods

What is Envision Neighborhoods?

The Envision Neighborhoods initiative will foster strong relationships between residents and the City's Neighborhood Planning team. Our team will engage residents to identify and understand community needs during a time of unprecedented investment in our neighborhoods. Envision Neighborhoods will be an ongoing engagement initiative, sparking conversations between our neighborhood planners and residents.
