Connect with the City Planning Department during a morning of learning and engagement! City Leaders is intended to inform the community about planning and the built environment in Albuquerque, create a more transparent planning process, and encourage community engagement in the growth and development of Albuquerque.
Every four years, the City of Albuquerque hosts a Goals Forum to take input from the community about strategic goals and desired community conditions. This year, the City invites the public to the following opportunities to make their voices heard. Community input collected will be presented to the Mayor and City Council, and will be made available to the public, to help shape Albuquerque’s future.
The first community input meeting takes place this Thursday, September 22 at 6:00 p.m., Central & Unser Library Community Room, 8081 Central NW. There are several other community input meetings scheduled in various locations throughout Albuquerque, giving everyone the opportunity to share their thoughts.
