Second Public Workshop for Palm Desert 111 Corridor Plan

On Thursday, December 4 at the Desert Willow Resort the Raimi/Sargent team led a second public workshop to present and receive community input on a range of design concepts for Palm Desert's 111 Corridor.  Following the successful initial workshop in early October, the STP team had worked rapidly to devise and illustrate the urban design framework to transform the 111 Corridor from an old highway strip to a multi-way boulevard to expand the existing El Paseo shopping district into a larger City Center District, linking it to the existing Civic Center to the north on San Pablo Avenue.  The assembled group of residents, business and property owners and community leaders received these recommendations enthusastically, and through large group and small group discussion offered a great deal of creative input. A third workshop is scheduled for March.
