Residents are invited to participate in one of the working groups that will collaborate with the developer on final design of plans presented to the community on April 3.
We are seeking people who have energy and ideas to contribute toward making the new development a great place for everyone. No special qualifications are needed and you can expect to learn a lot about development. Time commitment is roughly 10 hours over several months — meetings are yet to be scheduled. Food and childcare will be provided at meetings.
Please contact CNO executive director Eric Gustafson to learn more or get involved. eric@corcoranneighborhood.org or 612-724-7457.
Working groups will include:
- Retail Selection — what permanent retail or services should be located along Lake Street, next to the outdoor farmers market space?
- Plaza Design — how can the 1.5 acre plaza/park space best serve transit users, farmers market vendors and customers, and other community events and activities?
- Sustainability and Urban Ag — how can the project make efficient use of resources and showcase a commitment to environmental sustainability?
- Bike/Walk/Traffic — how can the project best connect and manage all forms of movement while encouraging modes that limit congestion, noise, and pollution?

Eric Gustafson is the CNO Executive Director.
