The City Council of Denton is decking the halls of its chambers for a very different kind of gathering. On the evening of September 17, locals are invited to speak their minds about the proposed Design Downtown Denton Plan. The plan's boundaries encompass a 767-acre zone in the heartland of the city, butting up to Carroll Boulevard on the west and skating over to Bell Avenue and Mingo Road to the east, with its northern edge cutting through College Street and down to Eagle Drive in the south.
Residents eager to share their perspectives or simply take in the proceedings should make their way to the City Hall's City Council Chambers at 215 E McKinney Street. The meeting, set to commence at 6:30 pm sharp, will provide a stage for citizens to either advocate for or contest the ordinance that's poised to reshape downtown Denton. As outlined by the City of Denton, attendees looking to contribute to the conversation will have the floor to make their voices heard.
Those preparing to attend the public hearing have been assured that the meeting will be held in person, a nod to traditional civic engagement in the modern era. Detailed information on how to participate can be found on the city's website at www.cityofdenton.com/publicmeetings. Cameron Robertson and Sean Jacobson, serving as staff contacts for the city, can be reached at (940) 349-8600 for inquiries leading up to the event.
