VANCOUVER – Clark County Public Works, Parks and Lands invites residents to an open house to learn more about the master planning process for a new neighborhood park in the Mt. Vista neighborhood. The property that will become a park is located along Northeast 27th Avenue between Northeast 161st and Northeast 163rd streets.
The open house, from 6 to 8 p.m. on Thursday, June 20, will provide residents with an opportunity to learn more and discuss the project with staff. From 6:30 to 7 p.m., staff will share a presentation that will also be streamed online via Webex. A question-and-answer session will follow the presentation. Before and after the presentation, in-person attendees can view project displays and discuss the project with staff. Light refreshments will be provided.
The in-person open house will be in the cafeteria of Vancouver iTech Preparatory school at 16100 NE 50th Ave. Handouts translated into Russian, Ukrainian and Spanish will be provided. Additional translation and interpretation can be requested by contacting the project manager.
To participate online via Webex, residents can register on the project webpage. Registrants will receive an email reminder with a one-click link to join the meeting. Registration is not required, and a link to join the meeting will be posted on the project webpage at least 10 minutes before the presentation. A recording of the presentation and copies of the slides and handouts will be posted on the project webpage within five business days after the open house.
