There will be an opportunity to ask questions after the presentation.

"We welcome your input and encourage you to bring your children so their voices can be included in this exciting project," officials said.

For those unable to attend, the meeting will be recorded and later broadcast through Channel 18 and other social media outlets.

"Our goal is to produce a final product that is safe, accessible, inclusive, enjoyable and representative of what the community desires," officials said.
