The City of South Bend has announced a series of events to create a neighborhood plan for the LaSalle Park Neighborhood.

The planning process, which begins this month, includes three parts, a housing panel discussion, neighborhood visioning workshop, and priorities workshop, which are all open to the public to participate.

The start of this series will begin with a housing panel at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 24th at the Charles Black Community Center. Keynote speaker Marques King and local developers will discuss opportunities and challenges of building new housing, and will conclude with a Q&A.

The visioning workshop will follow on Thursday, Oct. 26 from 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. at the Charles Black Community Center. This workshop will allow residents to provide their ideas as the neighborhood sets a broad direction for its housing, infrastructure, land use, amenities, and other key topics.

Lastly, the priorities workshop will take place on Thursday, Nov. 16 from 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. at the Charles Black Community Center. This workshop will provide a recap of the planning process and will open to group discussions about the neighborhood’s future priorities.

A neighborhood survey is open for residents and community members to take part in until November 3.
