ALPA representatives joined more than 10 environmental and nature organizations at a “Meeting on the Go” to help plan Kalamazoo’s future. The Imagine Kalamazoo 2035 initiative encouraged groups to meet and provide input to the City. ALPA will continue to work with these groups as the initiative moves into phase two. Some of the ideas discussed and reported to the City were: Environmental Sustainability & Ecological Health, Greenspaces, Parks, and Natural Areas, Community Engagement & Involvement, Education & Awareness, Education & Awareness, Economic Strategy & Funding, Urban Planning & Infrastructure, Partnerships & Collaboration, Success Stories & Best Practices, and Challenges & Barriers.
