The next step in this process is that the Columbia City Council will vote on whether to annex and rezone this property, and will vote on the preliminary plat design.
This was scheduled for the Monday, May 17 City Council meeting, but when the agenda was released on Friday, May 14 we learned that the developer is asking City Council to table this vote until June 7th.
The Council voted to schedule the vote for June 21st, so the Rally to Save Gans Creek has been rescheduled to 6:00 p.m. Monday, June 21, before the City Council meeting. This will be an opportunity to gather with other protectors of Gans Creek and add your voice to the mix…then attend the meeting to show Council how many people oppose this development in this location.
It is possible that the Council will NOT table the proposal and will vote anyway on May 17. This is unlikely, but if you can attend the May 17 meeting just in case…that would be super!
That gives us a few more weeks to share our perspectives with City Council, share the petition and spread the word. Check out our Take Action page for tips.
Thank you everyone for caring for this beautiful park we all share!
