<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>The Dept. of Planning and Development begins its use of
"charrettes" to get community input on citywide growth, development
goals and target areas today.<br>
<br>
This is the Providence Tomorrow project we've discussed and anticipated for a
long time. The various charrettes take place during the day and evening at 400 Westminster Street - the corner of Empire and Westminster down near Blue Cross. For
retro-directionals, that's the old Harris Fur building across from where the original
Lupos used to be. There is an article in the ProJo's Metro section this morning
with details. I attach the schedule provided by DPD.<br>

validated for Charrette events !<br>
At the Charrette, pick up a parking slip to present to the parking attendant <br>
at the Weybossett Street lot (across from the URI Shepard Building) <br>
to recieve free parking for all Providence Tomorrow Charrette events.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:

very hard for public engagement in city planning, a campaign that eventually
led to the Providence Tomorrow process, we were not consulted on the design,
location, timing or content of these sessions. <br>
