Last chance to provide feedback on a Wellness Center Location! Livingston City Commission to discuss tomorrow.

I'm writing with a reminder that comments about Livingston's proposed Wellness Center location are due tomorrow. And your unique voice matters!

The Livingston City Commission will hold its regular meeting tomorrow night, Tuesday, July 18 at 5:30 p.m. in the Community Room of the City-County Complex.

Earlier this month, we held a Community Conversation about the proposed new Wellness Center. Livingston City Manager Grant Gager provided information about the process, the four proposed sites, and how to get involved. Representatives from 4Ranges Foundation, Chair Andrew Field and Campaign Manager Chase Rose gave an update on the fundraising for the center. You can watch that recording here.

The City of Livingston has created a website with information on each of the four sites. You can also read the City's summary of the four proposed sites below.

This is a great opportunity to share your ideas, thoughts and concerns about the potential Wellness Center's location so your perspective can be considered by the Commission. 

Please give your feedback here.

At PCEC, we are excited about the possibility of a Wellness Center to help improve community health and well-being.

When considering the location, there are pros and cons at every site. Some of our top priorities would be to consider the ecological soundness, fiscal responsibility, and accessibility implications of any decision regarding a Wellness Center. We want the location and design to be environmentally safe for users for generations to come. We also want children, adults, and seniors of every ability and income level in the community to access the site easily. We hope that whatever site is chosen, the City will work to create safe routes and pedestrian railroad crossings so we all can access the Center by walking, biking, and using public transportation.

That said, PCEC's biggest priority is that people weigh in. Each of us has a unique perspective that will help inform the City's decision. The greater the diversity of views from people of all ages, mobilities, locations, economic standings, backgrounds, expertise, etc., the more lasting and durable the decision we will make as and for our community.

Please support the City make this critical decision by commenting and providing your concerns, thoughts, and ideas.
