Residents are invited to provide feedback on the design for Downtown’s Next Step at four meetings in June to help ensure the design best meets the community’s needs.

The four meetings are designed to include the perspectives of specific stakeholder groups. Each meeting will be structured the same, with the same information presented. The city will give a presentation on the feedback we receive in the July Engage Durango Forum. All meetings are open to the public, but residents are asked to attend one of the following meetings that best matches the perspective they would like to provide:

The Durango Public Library will host a Climate Cafe at 6PM on Tuesday, June 17th. These events are a space to share thoughts and feelings about the climate crisis in community. Climate Cafes are not action oriented; they're not about shifting the outcome or figuring out what to "do." Rather, they're an opportunity to build an ecosystem of community, to cultivate resilience, and to continue to meet the unknown future from a place of connection - to self, community, and earth. All are welcome. Program leader Hannah Smith holds a Masters in Social Work as well as an Advanced Certificate in Ecotherapy. Learn more about Climate Cafes at www.climate.cafe.
