The community is invited to
discussions about Pasadena’s
future priorities at the remaining workshops hosted by Pasadena City Council
members in their districts.
Participants will help their elected
council representatives map out the most important qualities and
characteristics of Pasadena
and define the community’s most pressing concerns.
The workshops are among several
events designed to engage the community in the General Plan update that will
guide how Pasadena grows and changes, where buildings and natural open space
should be located and how clean and simple travel can be prioritized.
