City of Orlando Community Venues

Public Input

The City of Orlando is committed to continuing the open and public process as the Community Venues projects move into the design and construction phase.

Over the past two years, the City has hosted nearly a dozen public workshops on Venue-related topics including: overviews from our Venues partners; the master planning process; the financing plan; Downtown Transportation Plan; and plans for the Creative Village. The City also held a series of neighborhood meetings and launched a dedicated Community Venues web page on cityoforlando.net to ensure information was accessible to the general public.
