NE 82nd Avenue Community Visioning Open House

Graduate students in Portland State University's Master of Urban and Regional Planning program will hold a community visioning open house for NE 82nd Avenue on Thursday, April 10.The five students are developing a vision plan for the corridor entitled Imagine 82nd. The plan will describe and illustrate the community's hopes for NE 82nd Avenue between the Banfield Freeway and Sandy Boulevard. The April 10th open house is a crucial first step in understanding the community's preferences for the busy five-lane corridor. The event will take a "drop in" format where local residents and employees can stop by at their convenience in the evening. Activities will include visual preference surveys, community opinion surveys, and identifying opportunities and challenges on maps.The open house will be held from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m., Thursday, April 10 at the Madison South Community Room at Banfield Pet Hospital Glenhaven Corporate Headquarters, 8000 NE Tillamook Street in Portland. All area residents, students, employees and business owners are encouraged to attend.For more information, e-mail Steve Szigethy at sszigeth@pdx.edu.To download a PDF of this press release, please click here.Download a PDF web flyer for this event: Imagine 82nd Open House Flyer
