Community Building Institue Final Report |
|
The Community Building Institute conducted
research on Kennedy Heights last year to help
us identify some of our assets and challenges
and to recommend ways to work better
together. The final report found that there
were four key strategic areas where many
residents focused energy: safety, business
district revitalization, education and the
arts. The report has a
recommendations on how
to effect better collaboration amongst these
groups. We'd like to share them with you
here.
KHCC is planning an open Town Hall
meeting in the Fall so we can share our
stories with each other on how we contribute
to our neighborhood, and to decide together
where KHCC should focus its efforts regarding
the Comprehensive Plan. Byron White of The
Community Building Institute will be
leading that discussion.
