We shape how Detroit grows
Through planning, engagement, and development, we work to improve quality of life, strengthen neighborhoods, and guide investment across the city.
Community Engagement
Community input is central to our work. Every planning effort is shaped through direct engagement with residents, stakeholders, and community leaders. This includes:
- Public meetings and open houses
- Small group discussions and listening sessions
- Surveys, mailings, and digital updates
- Office hours and one-on-one conversations
- Partnerships with local organizations
Our goal is simple: make it easy for people to participate, understand what’s being proposed, and see how their input shapes the outcome.
