March 13 Neighborhood Meeting

City Planning staff and the West Central Neighborhood Alliance hosted a well-attended public input workshop March 13. The workshop kicked off the process for developing a new neighborhood plan that will guide redevelopment, investment, and revitalization in the West Central Neighborhood. While the meeting was not recorded, below you will find informative demographics, data, and supporting information that was shared at the meeting. Participants provided valuable feedback during a facilitated mapping exercise, in which 11 neighborhood maps were generated from small resident and property owner group discussions. Each map (PDF) can be accessed from the links below.

Moving Forward 

In addition to the input gathered at the March 13, 2023 neighborhood workshop,^* City staff will be reviewing corresponding recommendations from past planning efforts, including The City’s Comprehensive Plan Forward SGF and several Supporting Subarea and Corridor Plans, such as the College Street Corridor Plan, Grant Avenue Parkway Corridor Plan, Jordan Valley Concept Plan, and the 1998 West Central Neighborhood Strategic Plan. Census data, demographics, and other geographic data and surveys will be also be evaluated to provide the framework for follow-up meetings, that will guide the development of goals, strategies, and recommendations for the West Central Neighborhood Plan.
