task force meetings
Meetings of the full Task Force were held across the city throughout the planning process, and were open to the public. The Task Force hosted two public meetings to listen to concerns and to collect ideas from citizens concerning historic preservation in the city – one at the beginning of the process and a second after the draft recommendations are released.
