Staff Report / Flintlocal.org

The City of Flint is hosting a series of public input meetings regarding the Imagine Flint Comprehensive Plan. The next meeting is scheduled for Thursday, October 3 at 5:30 p.m. at the Hasselbring Senior Community Center. This session will focus on Economic Development, discussing the progress made towards achieving various objectives, including providing viable businesses with access to capital, leveraging business clusters, and diversifying Flint's economy.

These meetings will take place weekly on Thursdays until October 24, with all sessions held at the Hasselbring Senior Community Center.

Community leaders acknowledge the changes Flint has experienced since 2013 and emphasize the need for the plan to reflect these evolving priorities. For those unable to attend the meetings in person, a survey is available to gather input on the topic.
