[CPNA] College Park Meeting, Monday September 23rd

Dear Friends and Neighbors,
The College Park Neighborhood Association will hold it's Fall meeting on Monday, September 23, 2013 at 6:30 p.m. at the First Congregational Church, 1415 North K Street.

This meeting will offer an exciting opportunity for Neighbors to speak to and hear directly from City Manager, Michael Bornstein and other Senior City Staff Department Directors on the proposed plan to improve, replace and repair infrastructure throughout the City. This means roads, sidewalks, stormwater, fire hydrants, city buildings, traffic calming, street lighting, the Park of Commerce and much more. This plan (Lake Worth 2020) was first presented at the Commission Visioning Session held in August and it is a WORK IN PROGRESS in terms of scope and financing.

The meeting will begin at 6:30 and the first half hour will be devoted to College Park Neighborhood news and announcements, beginning with an update from PBSO and an important update on the College Park Neighborhood Watch program.

The format for the rest of Monday's meeting will be an overview by the City Manager of what the Plan is, how it came to be and what kind of further information is required to finalize this extensive and expensive proposition before it can be approved.

The Lake Worth 2020 Plan as originally presented at the Visioning workshop is available for viewing on the city's website by clicking here. Please keep in mind that this is Plan In Progress and has not yet been finalized.

Following the presentation, Neighbors in attendance will have the opportunity to ask questions and express their own ideas and concerns. Questions and comments may be made in person and cards will be distributed for written questions.

The CP Board of Directors is grateful to the City Manager and Department Directors: William Waters, Steve Carr and Jamie Brown for making themselves available for this opportunity to interact with and respond directly to Neighbors.

All our neighbors from anywhere in the City are cordially invited to attend and participate.  Please feel free to share this information with friends and neighbors who may not be on our email distribution list.
