We will organize a Coffee in the Community event each month, held at different locations and times, leading up to the public comment period. Please come and go at a time that’s convenient for you. If you weren't able to attend a previous Coffee in Community event or can’t make this one, there will be more scheduled in the months ahead. Additionally, project staff will be attending community events and hosting public meetings during the summer and fall.
