The Plan
Community Meeting #3 – Oct. 12, 2023
Community Involvement
A community visioning process for the future of Lake Springfield included public engagement events, a presentation tour and a city-wide survey.
The community engagement process gathered input on what the community sees for this area of Lake Springfield. Residents, neighbors, business owners, developers, schools, parks, non-profit agencies and more collectively took part in identifying the areas of opportunity and concern in the area. This process helped the team zero in on a list of specific goals for the project to achieve.
