Vision Plans Update
The City of Jacksonville is embarking on a year long planning study to develop a Vision for Urban Core Planning District 1, Greater Arlington/Beaches Planning District 2, and Southeast Planning District 3. The success of this effort will depend on thoughtful and creative input from the community. As part of this public outreach endeavor, we invite all community members to participate in an ongoing discussion group which is hosted on the consulting team's web page at www.zyscovich.com. Your participation is encouraged and we look forward to hearing your concerns and ideas. Also, to be added to our Visioning Plan e-mail distribution list, submit your request to alathrop@coj.net and be sure to indicate the planning district in which you are interested.
