Springwood Avenue Redevelopment Plan - Public Input Forums

Dear Constituents:

I am writing to inform you that the Public Input Forums for the Springwood Avenue Redevelopment Plan are scheduled for next week. This is your opportunity to share your thoughts on the plan with the Springwood Avenue Advisory Board.

If you have not yet read the plan, it is available online at:

http://www.cityofasburypark.com/filestorage/74/DRAFT_Springwoodplan111706.pdf

The dates, times and locations of the scheduled public forums are as follows:

Tuesday, Feb 6th
8:30am
Brookdale Asbury Park Higher Education Center

Tuesday, Feb 6th
6:30pm
Asbury Park Village Community Room

Saturday, Feb 10th

Asbury Park Transportation Center

It is very important that we have as much citizen participation as possible in the review of this plan. To this end I am requesting that you please set aside some time to read the plan and bring your questions, comments and concerns to one of the scheduled forums. If for some reason you are unable to make any of the forums and you would still like to give your input, please contact me and I will make arrangements for that.

I unfortunately will miss the forum scheduled for February 10th as I leave Thursday morning for weeklong series of lectures in California, Nebraska and Colorado. So, I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible at the forums on Tuesday.

Peace,

Councilman James W. Keady
City of Asbury Park, NJ
