Description
Roll up your sleeves! After a morning spent discovering the “walkability” of Shelton, this public workshop will be held to build capacity and awareness amongst participants representing broad cross-sections of the community. This session includes an overview presentation explaining the importance of designing streets for all ages and illustrating best practices, and will include a review of the morning’s walking audit to help participants better understand walkability concepts and discuss specific opportunities.
This workshop includes sessions that help participants clarify the community’s values, identify how walkability and bikeability supports those values, and create community-backed priorities and next steps for implementing the project.
This event follows the morning’s walking tour, which you are also welcome to attend. Both events are brought to you by the Shelton-Mason County Chamber of Commerce and the City of Shelton who are partnering to establish a community-based vision and action plan for downtown Shelton that builds on existing planning and capital projects. The resulting strategy will emphasize means for promoting walkability and supporting economic development for existing and future businesses in the downtown core.
