What happens next?

At its regular meeting of July 13, 2021 at 7 PM, the City Council will consider accepting the Draft Lake Center District Corridor and Placemaking Study.  This will involve a public hearing.  If Council accepts the study, the City Administration will move forward in advancing the One-Year Action Plan outlined in the study. Projects will still need to go through the normal budgeting and Council approval processes and there will be ample time for public comments along the way.
