The City has launched an effort to create a long-term vision for Davis's downtown. The process will span roughly two years, and project out two decades. Spearheaded by the Downtown Plan Advisory Committee, the process seeks to involve community members.  What's driving the process? How was the committee convened? A public workshop just wrapped Jan. 25; we'll hear about that and learn about additional opportunities for community involvement.
