Events and Activities : Garrison Visioning Committee to Present Final Conceptual Landscape Designs

Residents of Garrison will have the opportunity to view the final conceptual landscape designs created through the Community Visioning Program, in which Garrison has been a participant since February.

On Monday, August 29th, from 5pm to 7pm, Meg Flenker from Flenker Land Architecture Consultants, Trees Forever Field Coordinator Patty Reisinger, and members of the Garrison Community Visioning Committee will be available to answer questions regarding these designs. The viewing is set to take place at the Garrison library, during the Farmer’s Market. Display will be outside if weather permits.

Some of the areas that have been addressed in these plans include Sycamore Avenue corridor enhancements, City Park improvements, and a looped trail around Garrison and community entryway enhancements.

Residents are strongly encouraged to attend this public viewing, where they can provide their input regarding the design concepts, as well as see the opportunities that exist to positively impact Garrison.

Residents who want more information or who are interested in participating in the visioning process should contact Teresa Meyer, local Visioning committee chair at 319-640-0119 or Patty Reisinger at 319-350-4185.

The Iowa’s Living Roadways Community Visioning Program is sponsored by the Iowa Department of Transportation, in partnership with Iowa State University Extension Landscape Architecture and Trees Forever.
