Open House Opportunities with Council

The City Council has scheduled open houses to engage with community members regarding infrastructure needs, rate adjustments necessary to address priorities, and a 5-year transition plan.  Council has scheduled four different sessions on different dates, times, and locations in hopes of connecting with as many community members as possible.  All sessions will be structured the same so there is no need to attend all of them; pick one that is convenient with your schedule.
