A series of public workshops, held at different locations throughout the City in September, will bring community members together to share big ideas for Delaware. The workshops will be highly interactive and designed to allow all who attend to have the chance to provide ideas to help shape the Delaware Together comprehensive plan. The workshops will include a brief presentation with information on the planning process followed by small group work at which participants will be asked to share their thoughts and take part in a mapping exercise.
The workshops will be held the following dates. The agenda will be the same at each workshop and community members are encouraged to attend the workshop that is most convenient to them.

Are these workshops open to non-citizens of Delaware? I live in Delaware County south of Hyatt Rd. and would like to attend.
Yes, John. The meetings are open to anyone with ideas about Delaware. We look forward to seeing you!
Great idea. Good luck with your work. During your initial presentation, it would be a good idea to present major projects already underway.
I have significant experience in facilitation of strategic planning and would be glad to help in any way I can.
Delaware will evolve into an unlivable community if the road infrastructure isn’t addressed. My husband and I have moved here 3 years ago and didn’t know how clogged the roads were. The trucks are such a nuisance. Huge growth is anticipated in Delaware and the county. If the roads aren’t improved we will relocate.
I’ll attend the 27 September event at the Second Ward Community Center 50A Ross Street.
Thank you Harry, we look forward to seeing you!
I will attend the Conger Elementary meeting on Tuesday, September 26. I look forward to meeting your committee.
Thank you Lorraine, we look forward to seeing you!
You have Two listed for the 25 of September at the same time? Is this correct?
It is, we are trying to provide as many opportunities as possible. Hope to see you at a meeting!
I wasn’t able to come to the meeting that was held yesterday. Is it still possible to attend the other meetings that are scheduled?
Yes Laura. You are free to attend as many as you would like. They will all be similar in format but discussion may vary depending on turnout.
