PASADENA'S FUTURE - WHAT'S NEXT?  
 

As part of Pasadena's ongoing update of its General Plan, two interactive community workshops are set this month to discuss opportunities and constraints for growth over the next ten years and beyond.  Residents, business owners, non-profits, civic leaders and other interested groups are invited to participate. 

 

The workshops will be held on Saturday, September 25th from 9:00am - 12:00pm and Thursday, September 30th at 6:30pm - 9:30pm at the Pasadena Senior Center, 85 E. Holly Street.  The key questions: should Pasadena continue to grow into a more metropolitan city, strive for a small-town feel, or can we find a healthy balance?
