Downer Avenue Commercial Corridor Meeting Follow Up
This message is from Alderman Kovac…
—————————————————————————————–
Thank you to the hundred-plus neighbors who attended the meeting at the East Library last Wednesday to discuss the Downer Avenue Commercial Corridor. In case you weren’t able to attend in person, or would like more time to review the information presented by our Department of City Development (DCD), all of the slides from the meeting can be viewed here.
Wednesday night was the beginning of a community process that I hope gives all of us confidence in the present and future of Downer Avenue.
In addition to the verbal and written feedback we received at the meeting, we are encouraging everyone to provide further input about the future of Downer Avenue via an online survey. Please click on the links below to provide input that will be incorporated into the Downer Avenue Commercial Corridor Snapshot that will be prepared by DCD over the coming weeks.
- What types of retail would complement the existing stores on Downer?
- What should Downer look like in two years?
- What should Downer look like in ten years?
Once completed, this snapshot will guide the efforts of the city and our partners as we work to support investment on Downer Avenue that is consistent with the neighborhood’s vision for the corridor.
DCD will incorporate the online comments into the Snapshot, but if you would prefer to submit your comments by email, please send them to northeastsideplan@milwaukee.gov.
Thanks,
Nik Kovac
3rd District Alderman
