The city of College Station is asking for the public's assistance to evaluate the city's 20 year comprehensive plan at its midway point.
Public assistance is being requested to evaluate the plan at its midway point. City officials consider that crucial to ensure the plan is on track to help guide the city's growth over the next 10 years.
Staff planner Alyssa Halle-Schramm, speaking on WTAW's The Infomaniacs, says there are four opportunities to participate in College Station's "Focus on the Future" workshop the week of September 23rd.
She says the goal is to have "fun and interactive public sessions" that will include "games and trivia about current population information".
That's after College Station's population unexpectedly increased from about 93,000 in 2009 to about 122,000 today.
After participants hear what Halle-Schramm called "did ya knows" about College Station, there will be small group discussions where individual visions will be shared about the city's future.
Halle-Schramm says they'll find out if there are any collective themes.
And the public input will assist staff in proposing updates to the comprehensive plan.
The 90 minute workshop will be held at four locations. Each will include a Spanish translator and children's activities.
Times and locations are:
MONDAY, SEPT. 23 • 7-8:30 p.m. at the Southwood Valley elementary school cafeteria, 2700 Brothers Blvd.
TUESDAY, SEPT. 24 • 11:30 a.m.-1 p.m. at the College Station Utilities meeting and training facility, 1601 Graham Road
TUESDAY, SEPT. 24 • 7-8:30 p.m. at Forest Ridge elementary school cafeteria, 1950 Greens Prairie Road West
WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 25 • 7-8:30 p.m. at Oakwood intermediate school cafeteria, 106 Holik Street
