Residents and interested community leaders are encouraged to attend a community forum sponsored by the Leadership Long Beach Connected Corridor group Thursday, Oct. 22 at the cafeteria at Burnett Elementary School, 565 E. Hill St. from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.
Connected Corridor is an attempt to bring together neighbors and businesses along Atlantic Avenue from North Long Beach to downtown to find ways to improve the street and adjacent neighborhoods.
The group is currently beginning work on a third phase from Spring Street to Pacific Coast Highway and wants to listen to ideas from the local residents, small business owners, nonprofits, grassroots organizations and those who represent their neighborhoods.
Organizers in an e-mail said "We learned so much in previous community events , and we continue that mission to hear from the people working and living along the Atlantic Corridor in the Phase Three area."
An area map prepared by Rethinking Greater Long Beach can be seen at www.connectedcorridor.org.
Refreshments and a light dinner will be provided along with child care and translators.
RSVP or questions can be sent to the Leadership Long Beach Office 562-997-9194.
