Following a successful community engagement process, feedback from local residents, organizations, and neighboring communities was consolidated and shared with Edgewater's Sustainability Board. Over the course of two work sessions, the Sustainability Board provided additional feedback that the consulting firm, Crescendo Planning, integrated into a revised Plan draft. City staff then reviewed and commented on this initial draft, and the current iteration of it is now under review by the Sustainability Board.
The subsequent draft will be posted on this project page for public review and comment starting on Monday, July 7th.
Stay tuned!
