Now through September 20 will be your last opportunity to review Draft Strategies and provide feedback before the Strategic Framework Plan is complete in late October. Beginning next week, Monday, August 6th, you will begin to receive this newsletter weekly. The topic next week will be Draft Strategies for Economic Growth. Each of the following weeks will focus on Draft Strategies for a different planning element. We will also provide you with information about events and activities taking place that will allow you to become more familiar with the information and provide your feedback. We look forward to sharing information with in the coming weeks and gathering your input as we work together to improve the quality of life in Detroit.
