A downtown plan: Let them know what you think!

Town_meeting_activity1 Seems like people always complain after the fact.  "Why did they do THAT?"  "What was (insert offender's name here)thinking?"  "Are our tax dollars paying for that?"  You've got to open your mouth early in the discussions if you feel passionately about something, but often we don't realize we ever had the opportunity.  I know-it's easy to miss- there are a lot of meetings and an whole lot of consultants floating around this city so I don't know who could keep track.  But here's one I thought you'd care about:

Kirkland Community Conversation – The Downtown Strategic Plan Update

July 16, 2007

Kirkland Teen Union Building

348 Kirkland Ave

6:30 to 8:30pm

I have no idea if the quickly-growing-controversial topic of Park Place redevelopment is on the agenda, but I'd guess it should be.  And how does annexation fit into this strategy?  So many loaded questions!   Take a quick break from the sun and go contribute, Kirkland!   Or, if you can't get off your lounger, at least take the online survey.    ~Janis
