The City will host an open house on the Southwest District Plan between 6 and 8 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 1, 2022, at Weber Elementary, 3850 Rohret Road. 

The Southwest District Plan impacts the southwestern portion of Iowa City south of Rohret Road, west of Highway 218, and north of Highway 1. The open house will be an opportunity for residents to learn more about the future of this area, and to share their thoughts. 

Topics for the meeting will include housing, neighborhood development, parks, schools, infrastructure, transportation, commercial uses, and more. This will be the first event for the public to meet and discuss potential changes to the Southwest District Plan. More opportunities for input, including two public meetings, will be held in the near future.
