About 80 people coming out to view the plan, which outlines the growth strategy of the city over the 25 years, and it was met with positive praise.
Lyn Van Tassel lives by Treadwell Lake and she tells CHSJ News she likes the focus on uptown growth and less on rural development. Dee Stubbs-Lee of Germain Street listened to the summary by city planner Ken Forrest and she tells CHSJ News she likes the future direction for the uptown. Sean Gillis of Orange Street likes the plan but he hopes people don't see it as a magic bullet for the city's future.
The city is taking public input on the draft for the next 4 weeks and will present a final version of the plan to Common Council by the end of the year.
