- It’s the mid-point of the Bethesda Downtown Plan planning process and you can still give your thoughts on the future of Downtown Bethesda
- Drop-in tonight and ask questions and discuss your ideas and concerns with planners
- Newcomers and long-time participants welcome!
- The next public meeting will be a Workshop on Saturday, May 17 at B-CC High school
- The Draft Plan is scheduled to go to the Planning Board starting in Fall 2014
Here’s what you will see tonight:
- A new diagram that shows the prevailing thoughts about subareas, centers and connections
- Updated posters of existing conditions and what we have heard
- Questions that will be asked:
- Which are your highest priority districts to focus on?
- What do you want outdoors? (Show us your priorities.)
- Which one-way streets should be two way?
- Which streets should be closed to cars for special events?
You are invited to continue to participate online with the planning process. Questions will be posted online in the upcoming months to find out more about what you would like Bethesda to be like in the future.
