College Station officials announced a public Community Scenarios Workshop on the Harvey District Plan, set for 6 to 8 p.m. Nov. 18 at Visit College Station, 1207 Texas Ave. S. Draft recommendations will be developed afterward for consideration in spring 2027.
Why it matters
The Harvey District faces aging development and infrastructure, gaps in walking and biking connections, and changing retail and housing needs. Residents' input at the workshop will help shape how the district develops over the coming decade.
The planning process has relied on workshops, focus groups and surveys since June, with the plan spanning 10 to 20 years. Specific development options remain undetermined and will depend on community feedback and transportation feasibility analysis.
