Open House

The Town is currently working to complete a Shade & Streetscape Master Plan for the community to establish methods for expanding and maintaining the shade coverage across the entire town. Work completed to date on this project is an extensive shade documentation study of the entire town and select focus areas and corridors, stakeholder meetings with local entities, departments, and non-profits, and the initial outline of implementation strategies to create a town wide effort to increase our local shade canopy. 

Please join us in reviewing the existing conditions data and the initial strategies for increasing shade that our Consultant (The Design Laboratory) have developed for across Gilbert. 

All are welcome to join as this open house is hosted both in-person and virtually through zoom. Please join us through the repeating presentation and move through the open house boards either in person or virtually to provide feedback.
