Join the Golden Planning Division on December 1 from 6 to 7:30 p.m. for a virtual community meeting to discuss a 2020 update of the South Golden Neighborhoods Plan.
Staff will review the results of our summer surveys and take additional feedback from attendees. This will be the perfect opportunity to get involved with the project, even if you missed the initial surveys; there will be additional questions to refine our understanding of those initial results. Participants will be able to use interactive tools that will provide staff live feedback during the virtual meeting. We look forward to your participation!
Participants may also call-in for the meeting at +1-408-418-9388, using the access code: 146 739 4965.
The meeting will also be live-streamed on the Golden Meetings & Agendas page.
Although the annual Candlelight Walk is cancelled, the holiday spirit will still be illuminated throughout Golden.
