On the evening of Wednesday, October 20th, the City of Elko hosted a public open house at the Stockmen’s Hotel and Casino to present the ideas and concepts included in the Draft Elko City Master Plan as well as to collect input for the new Downtown Strategic Plan.
Attendees were able to browse a series of presentation boards that presented the key components and ideas included in the draft Master Plan, as well as leave comments for the plan preparers on how to make the plan better. Input and feedback from the community will be used to identify any concerns with the current Draft Plan, so that they can be addressed or corrected prior to the commencement of the adoption process in January 2011.
Comments received were relatively minor, and primarily dealt with parks and recreation. Specifically, it was asked that the City preserve the main City Park as is, and that a dog park be provided to help keep the other city parks clean.
Download the Draft Master Plan, read it, and share your comments!
You can leave comments on this website or on Facebook, or send them privately by email or telephone.
We want to know how to make the plan better, and to address your comments before the official public hearings in January/February.
