Starting at 6:30 PM will be held at the Cathedral Barn.
After four months of public meetings and input from hundreds of citizens, a draft vision has been prepared for the Barns and surrounding property at the Grand Traverse Commons for community comment. A meeting will be held at the Cathedral Barn on Thursday, May 17 at 6:30 p.m. to describe the plan and solicit input.�
As we heard the input from participants in last Thursday’s session, four use themes emerged: recreation, agriculture, arts, and community use. Most all of the ideas appear to fit within one or more of these themes. There were also development principles expressed by many of the small groups, including mixed and multiple use, minimizing parking through pedestrian design and use of alternative transportation, maintaining the natural features and topography, and utilizing sustainable technology, including alternative energy sources.
What do you think about mixing all these themes (rec, ag, arts and community) together on the Barns property under a series of development principles that each use must follow?
