Round 1 - Let’s Talk Housing!

What happened in Round 1?

The first round of Neighborhoods Where We All Belong consisted of multiple events to introduce the effort and conduct initial community visioning to listen and learn about the community’s ideas for housing. Throughout the months of July and September, the City facilitated four community workshops:

• Citywide Open House on Wednesday, July 30 at the Norma Hertzog Community Center

• Harbor & Newport Boulevards Workshop on Thursday, August 21 at the Costa Mesa City Hall Community Room

• Westside Walking Tour & Workshop on Saturday, August 23 at the Costa Mesa Senior Center

• North Costa Mesa & SoBECA Workshop on Wednesday, September 10 at FLDWRK
