Opportunities for
Community Input
The main objective for this process is to gain input from individuals, groups and community stakeholders in order to identify key issues as well as opportunities, so we may create a vision and concept that will greatly enhance the community. There are still numerous opportunities to express thoughts and concerns, share ideas and provide invaluable input on the development. Visit the events tab for a full list of upcoming public meetings and as always we welcome you to email 5thAveDev@RyanCompanies.com.

Working Groups
The Steering Committee chose to move forward with the following Working Groups: land use, storm water, pedestrian safety/connectivity, traffic/transportation, parking and design. Each group consists of 4-5 community representatives, a City Council member, city staff, and representatives of Ryan Companies.
Groups were tasked with:
- Evaluation of existing information
- Engagement with technical consultant on relevant subject matter
- Inviting and considering community feedback on the particular working group topic
- Completing related due diligence and identifying potential solutions that are financially feasible
- Collaboration with other Working Groups in summarizing the finding of the overall effort
