Planning Meetings Slated for September

NOTE: The planning sessions listed below have had to be postponed until October.  When new dates are finalized, we will announce them on this website.

Many College Hill residents may recall that neighborhood planning efforts begun in 2009 were suspended so that the association could address issues related to The Province development. This September, the neighborhood will resume the planning work and develop an updated College Hill plan. Neighborhood Summit meetings are planned for:

  • Saturday, Sept. 14, 2013, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
  • Monday, Sept. 16, 2013, from 6 to 8 p.m. 

The location will be the Fellowship Hall of the Presbyterian Church of the Covenant. The same information will be presented at each meeting, so you need only plan to attend ONE of these meetings.

To prepare for the upcoming meetings, all residents are urged to be familiar with the draft College Hill Neighborhood Plan as it existed when the planning process was put on hold in November 2009.  Watch your mail for more information about the Neighborhood Summit.
