Public Invited to Attend Open House Info Sessions at Midtown Center Development Site
Alderman Mark Chambers, Jr. said members of the public are invited to attend three upcoming public informational meetings at the Midtown Center site that (if approved) would house a Milwaukee Public Library branch, as well as other amenities.
Alderman Chambers said the informational meetings at the former Walmart at 5825 W. Hope Ave. will be attended by himself, staff from the Milwaukee Public Library and the Department of City Development, and developers AFS Milwaukee, LLC, and Gorman & Co.
“Obviously there has been a significant amount of attention paid to this redevelopment proposal in the media, but it is absolutely critical for the public to be a part of the process for this project, and these meetings will be a key part of that public involvement,” Alderman Chambers said. “I strongly urge anyone interested in the project to attend at least one of the public informational meetings.”
The meetings will be:
· Wednesday, June 10 – 5:30 to 7 p.m.
· Thursday, June 18 – 5:30 to 7 p.m.
· Saturday, June 27 – 12 to 1:30 p.m.
