Venice: Seaboard Master Plan public charrette set for 7/31-8/2

The City of Venice is in the process, with the assistance of consultant Dover Kohl and Partners, of developing a master plan for the Seaboard area. This master plan will be the blueprint for the transition of the area into a mixed-use neighborhood.

As more hands make better plans, a design charrette is scheduled for July 31-Aug. 2. A charrette is an opportunity for the public to join with the planning professionals and brainstorm, sketch ideas, and collaborate regarding the specific project area.

The charrette will be held each day from 10 a.m.-4:30 p.m. in Community Hall at City Hall, 401 W. Venice Ave. The public is welcome anytime during the charrette; however, the timeframe of 10 a.m.-1 p.m. is encouraged, as it will be topic-driven and include a presentation. On Aug. 2 from 6-7:30 p.m., there will be a work-in-progress presentation.
