This year, I have chosen to focus this meeting on highlighting the work being done across the county to build equity – specifically around community engagement, economic empowerment, housing affordability and access to green space. Additionally, I am excited for the opportunity to highlight the beautiful new community center in Fircrest that has already become an amazing gathering space for the community. If you have not had a chance to check it out yet, you’re missing out!
