The residents of St. Louis Park have a chance to influence their city's future through the Vision 4.0 initiative, which is still open for community engagement. Members of the community are encouraged to share their perspectives and ideas by participating in an ongoing survey, specifically designed for locals to lay out their aspirations for the area.
A virtual town hall meeting is slated for September 16 from 6 – 7 p.m. This online event, hosted by Forecast Public Art and featuring the City of St. Louis Park Vision 4.0 Executive Committee, promises an in-depth look at the progress made in the Vision 4.0 engagement period thus far.

Furthermore, a community gathering will take place on September 20 from 4 – 6 p.m. at the Aquila Park Building, according to the City of St. Louis Park.
