The City of Lockhart is hosting its first open house for the Downtown Revitalization Project on Monday, November 15, at 7 p.m.- 9 p.m. at the First Lockhart Baptist Church-Connection Center, 200 S. Blanco St. The event will begin with a short presentation from the City’s consulting engineer and landscape architects at 7 p.m., then the public may walk around and closely examine conceptual design displays set up throughout the location. This approach gives the community the opportunity to speak to project personnel and City Staff about the project, one-on-one.

The open house is being held to provide information on the Downtown Revitalization Project, which involves proposed upgrades in utilities, drainage, streetscape, parking, hardscape, pedestrian access, and landscaping in the nine-block area around the Caldwell County Courthouse. The project is currently in the design phase.

  The community’s input is encouraged and those in attendance may come and go as they please. Anyone interested are invited to attend and present relevant comments and questions. Comments and information received during the open house will be taken into consideration as work on the project develops.

  If you have any general questions prior to the event, please contact the City of Lockhart’s Public Information Officer, Victoria Maranan, at vmaranan@lockhart-tx.org.

For more technical questions or comments, contact the City of Lockhart’s Public Works Director, Sean Kelley, at skelley@lockhart-tx.org.

The time, date, and location for the second open house is to be determined.
