We would like you to help determine the future of your neighborhood. The North Shoal Creek neighborhood planning area includes everything surrounded by US 183, Burnet Road, Anderson Lane, and Mopac. We invite every resident, business, and property owner in the neighborhood to join us. At the first meeting we discussed what makes a complete community. The second meeting will focus on how you travel within and outside of your neighborhood. The meeting is on Saturday, November 5th, 2016, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM at the Pillow Elementary School cafeteria. Please note that the date has changed! Please join us for refreshments and a conversation with your fellow residents about your neighborhood. Additional meetings will come in December and next year.

From Michael J. Gaudini, Policy Advisor, Council Member Leslie Pool’s Office, District 7
Hello,
My name is Michael and I work in Council Member Pool’s office. As you may know, city planning staff will soon be kicking off the North Shoal Creek Neighborhood Plan.
This process is an important opportunity for you and your neighbors in North Shoal Creek to contribute to the community’s vision for the neighborhood and its future. Once completed, the North Shoal Creek Neighborhood Plan will guide the city’s zoning and land use decisions in order to achieve the values and goals expressed by the community in the plan.
City planning staff will initiate this effort at a community meeting this Saturday, October 1 from 9 AM to 12 PM in the cafeteria at Pillow Elementary (3025 Crosscreek Dr.). This first meeting will involve city staff learning what residents like best about their neighborhood, as well as what their concerns are.
I would encourage all interested residents to participate in this process as it moves forward.
