<p><strong>But it’s time for you to weigh in, as well.</strong></p>
<h5><strong>Downtown in Progress</strong></h5>
<p>Across from the Cary Arts center is what Town Council and Staff commonly refer to as the <em>“Opportunity Site.”</em> Last year the town held a charrette to brainstorm and create a framework regarding the area – to guide how that piece of property will develop.</p>
<p>There have been some great articles written about this effort – some of my favorite are by the <a title="Cary Citizen" href="www.carycitizen.com" target="_blank">Cary Citizen:</a></p>
<p>&#8211; <strong><em>Downtown Park Plans Move Forward</em> </strong><a href="http://carycitizen.com/2013/01/30/downtown-park-plans-move-forward/" target="_blank">(link)</a><br />
&#8211; <em><strong>Ben Shivar: Past, Present, Future in Cary</strong> </em><a href="http://carycitizen.com/2013/01/06/ben-shivar-past-present-future-in-cary/" target="_blank">(link)</a></p>
<h5><span id="more-960"></span></h5>
<h5><strong>Now it’s your turn</strong></h5>
<p>Citizens are invited to <strong><em>come to a public meeting</em> </strong>that will be held next week at Town Hall – where Town Staff will present an update on the park and facilities that are currently on the plan. But most importantly, <strong>we want your feedback</strong> as we dive deep into creating a truly <strong>unique, remarkable and extraordinary destination.</strong></p>
