The regional planning agency East-West Gateway Council of Governments is asking the public what it wants to see in transit-oriented development around five MetroLink stations
Starting tonight, East-West Gateway will hold a series of open houses. A complete list of locations is below.
"Communities around MetroLink stations can perhaps better use the land near them, to create places for people to live, to shop, to work, basically create districts and communities around the various MetroLink stations," said Britt Palmberg a project manager for Design Workshop, which is handling preliminary planning.
