The City of Santa Clarita is inviting community members to a public meeting on Thursday, Oct. 13, 2011, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. to discuss the Lyons Corridor Plan. Residents are encouraged to share their ideas and concerns as the City works to update its planning and zoning regulations along Lyons Avenue. The meeting will be held at the Old Orchard I Clubhouse, located at 25051 Avenida Rotella.

“The City of Santa Clarita is committed to ongoing redevelopment efforts in the Newhall area,” commented Mayor Marsha McLean. “The Lyons Corridor Plan is the first in a series of steps designed to improve community aesthetics, guide new growth and influence the design of new buildings over the next year.”

The Lyons Corridor Plan involves revitalization efforts to storefronts and public spaces between Interstate 5 Freeway and Newhall Avenue. The 102-acre plan focuses on developing high quality commercial properties that maximize spaces for public use and is consistent with the City’s new General Plan.

City planners will share results from the last public outreach meeting, engage attendees in an interactive question and answer session and request feedback on how the Lyons Corridor Plan should move forward.
