Neighborhood Planning: Birdtown / Madison East

The Department of Planning and Development hosted the first in a series of neighborhood planning workshops for the Birdtown/Madison East neighborhood on September 22nd at North Coast Baptist Church (2051 Quail).

The workshop was attended by about 40 residents, business owners, community group representatives and City representatives to begin work on creating a plan for the neighborhood.

A lively discussion included the topics of neighborhood beautification, transportation, parking, walkability, cultural resources, park improvements and safety. City staff will work in the coming weeks to distill the community comments and will host the next meeting in mid November to report back to the neighborhood and begin setting priorities for on-going improvement.
