Community asked to complete survey on Aloha Tomorrow project
The Washington County Aloha Tomorrow project team is asking the community to complete a short online survey to provide feedback on potential changes in the 185th and TV Highway commercial area and the Aloha portion of TV Highway.
Through the 2014 Aloha-Reedville Study (Aloha Reedville Study and Livable Community Plan) the community identified needs and improvements for the commercial area at 185th Avenue and TV Highway. The public also expressed the need for transit-related improvements along TV Highway and the desire to make Alexander Street a welcoming place for pedestrians and bicyclists. The Aloha Tomorrow project is the next step. The project team is looking for community input on turning these ideas into specific improvements.
Those who live in, work in or visit the project study area are encouraged to complete the survey at www.alohatomorrow.com until March 3. The survey is available in both English and Spanish.
A presentation on Aloha Tomorrow will be held at the Aloha Business Association monthly luncheon from 11:30 a.m.-1 p.m. Thursday (Feb. 9) at the Peppermill Restaurant,  17455 SW Farmington Road.
