Virtual Meeting on Watershed District's Stormwater and Greenway Project at 325 Blake Road is January 24

The Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (MCWD) will host a virtual public meeting on Monday, January 24, from 6:30 to 8 p.m., to present updated designs for its stormwater and Greenway project at 325 Blake Road. They will also seek input from the community on project components like water access, seating, educational signs and bike facilities. The latest designs build on feedback received in November at a neighborhood meeting hosted by Alatus. Input from this virtual meeting will help refine these designs for consideration by the MCWD Board later this winter. If you are unable to attend the meeting, visit MCWD’s project website to review the meeting materials and provide input (next week through February 16). Register for the virtual meeting here.
