Title

River Street Park Redesign Engagement Update

 

Purpose

PURPOSE/BACKGROUND:

This briefing is to update City Council on the progress made to engage community members regarding the potential impacts of the Hampton Roads Express Lane (Segment 4C) project on the future of River Street Park. The briefing will provide an overview of community engagement efforts with neighborhood stakeholders, including a summary report on the recommendations developed by the steering committee identifying park key elements and their desired future uses of the park. The completion of this phase of community engagement process represents the first step in our collaboration with the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) to mitigate the impacts of the planned construction along the I-64 corridor.
